Equally, why on earth are you running tests as root!?!?!?!?! Madness. It's as bad as compiling stuff as root etc etc. A bad idea all around, securitywise. Especially, I would think, a builtbot. "Oh, let's fetch some shiny new code and run it as the system superuser."
Said buildbot probably runs in a VM.
