The failure is reported upstream, see 
https://github.com/marcandre/backports/issues/127

From upstream:
Sorry the failure is quite obscure.

Backports wants to make sure it is defining the right methods only when necessary. The test is failing because the method alias_method_chainappears to have been added to all modules (Array, Binding, ...). Maybe the old backports/rails/module/alias_method_chain is somehow loaded, but I don't see how or why...
