Ahhh.  That would make sense.

Umm.  Building and testing things as root is a bug ;-).

I guess in the mean time someone could figure out how to disable that
part if running as root... I can't seem to find an AT_XFAIL_IF that
detects this case.  (I don't want to run 'id', for worries about
portability, it seems much simpler to do something like
AT_XFAIL_IF(cd test_dir3), but for some reason I can't make this
work.)
