As non-root.
(All the tests in the repository assume non-root runtime context. I
should have mentioned that, sorry.)

That's "expected".

When the tests failed for the first time (due to being ran as root) ,
the message queues remained in the system. So every subsequent attempt
to run the tests again, failed because those queues were already
present (opened) in the system. I will fix it by installing a signal
handler that cleans up the mess upon SIGABRT. (Actually, IIRC, some
tests may already have such a thing.)

Most important is that vkernel didn't crash or hang :)
I assume that you didn't pass -n1 to the vkernel, right ?
