With the above snapshot and --disable-acl, all of the default tests,
including those enabled via RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS pass.

as for the check-root tests:

  this one now passes:
  
    special-bits

  these fail:

    rm/fail-2eperm
    cp/preserve-gid
    touch/now-owned-by-other


I must've missed one of those in my previous report, sorry.
