    Problem Text
    This test may fail on conforming implementations because it is invalid.

    General Assertion 45 states

    When a utility is unable to perform the requested action on an
    external object (file, directory, user, process, etc.) specified
    by an operand, then the utility issues a diagnostic message to
    standard error and continues processing subsequent operands. The
    final exit status of the utility is non-zero.

    But the only operands to sact are directories and/or filenames.
    The spec requires that

    Non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored.

    As a result, there are no invalid operand cases to consider.

    The assertion does not apply. the test should be marked UNTESTABLE.
