Vajrasky Kok added the comment:

"According to my (non-expert) reading of the code, the test skips (or is supposed to skip) unless group count of uid is > 1.

The group membership of the buildbot user this worker runs as is only 'buildbot' and on that basis wouldn't a skip expected?"

The group here is not the group of buildbot user. The group here refers to all groups in the system.

I am the creator of this test. I will investigate this issue but since I am not BSD user, it may take a while.
