I found a simpler way to test on the same machine, just changing to use
the gnu chown that exists on the machine.  I verified after switching
chown commands, the supplied 'simple-repro.sh' script tests pass.

Here's how I switched chown commands after a vanilla Ubuntu 26 install
on a test/lab machine:

cd /usr/bin
mv chown coreutils-chown
ln -s gnuchown chown

I'm not suggesting this as a workaround, just as an easier way to repro
with just the Ubuntu 26 machine.
