I could be wrong, but I believe this test is invalid because each time
you execute /bin/ls, you are fork+exec()ing.  The new task may load the
new profile.  This bug is about an existing task (not) being switched to
the new profile.

(Even if you do 'exec /bin/ls /tmp' in your test - which I tried - you
are doing an exec(), which changes credentials)
