[this is on i386-apple-darwin9.1.0]
This system has incompatible ACL support, so that for example,
copy.c's use of acl_from_text always fails with EINVAL.
The solution (for 6.9.92) is to configure with --disable-acl.
Then all of the above tests pass.

It'd be good to do that automatically -- and without a run-test,
but I'm not motivated to spend more time on it now.
Documenting the work-around in README might be enough.
