[issue17746] test_shutil.TestWhich.test_non_matching_mode fails when running as root

[Matthias Klose]

Matthias Klose added the comment:

one way would be to skip this test when running as root. Would the check for the X bit work on Windows?

    @unittest.skipUnless(hasattr(os, 'getuid') and os.getuid() != 0,
                         "test always succeeds as root")
