Hmm... you can tell I haven't been running the root-only tests
on capability-enabled systems.  This showed up as a root-only failure:

  $ sudo env PATH="$PATH" NON_ROOT_USERNAME=$USER make -k check-root
  PASS: chown/basic
  ...
  PASS: install/install-C-root
  FAIL: ls/capability           <<<<==== oops
  PASS: ls/nameless-uid
  ...
  PASS: touch/now-owned-by-other

Here's the fix:
