Cygwin is treated specifically to do this instead of that.  As I review
more cases of the specifically treated Cygwin I think the tests are old
as setfacl options being used don't exist today.

That depends on the purpose of the test and based on the comments the
testing could use any group.  It should also check that the /tmp
filesystem can support ACL as it assumes /tmp to be locally mounted and
skip the testing if not.
