I don't think that's it. The whole testsuite passes except

../build-aux/test-driver: line 107:  9207 Aborted                 (core dumped) 
"$@" > $log_file 2>&1
FAIL: test-faccessat

and that same build has the issue:

€ echo a | ./xargs/xargs   echo
./xargs/xargs: echo: terminated by signal 11

So either the testsuite doesn't test xargs, or xargs uses faccessat (but
I don't see that happening in the source code).

Yes. I wanted to make sure that hurd-i386 has a recent enough version of
findutils for looking after #826043.

Yes. I always rebuild packages with the testsuite after having building
with nocheck, to make sure we don't forget to actually fix the bug some
day, while still avoiding lagging behind for corner case test failures.

And the faccessat bug should have been fixed since a long time.
