Thanks, I didn't know: I only noticed this on the FreeBSD buildbots (I
guess OS-X buildbots don't run as root). Note that it does behave as
"expected" on Linux (note the use of quotation marks, I'm not sure
whether this behavior is authorized by POSIX).
I changed the test to skip when the effective UID is 0, regardless of
the OS, to stay on the safe side.
