Pure chance I believe.  It all depends on the MAC address of the machines the test runs on (which is perhaps an unacceptable environmental variability in the test suite, and should be fixed/mocked?).

FWIW, I saw the failures on my 2017 MacBook Pro, where the MAC address did have that bit set on two of its interfaces.
