You need to have sudo access to root to run these tests. Checking ...
Test for sudo OK

aux-fixed file is world-writeable; best to strip them all, recursively

the 2nd complaint is probably not a showstopper, but the only
world-writeable files are as follows:

eximtest@devuan-205f:~/exim/test$ ls -lRa aux-fixed/ | grep 'w[-xsS] '
lrwxrwxrwx 1 itz eximtest 15 Feb 23 13:33 9ec80de3.0 -> ../../CA/CA.pem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 itz eximtest 19 Feb 23 13:33 d89e5358.0 -> ../../CA/Signer.pem

Sadly I am pretty close to the point of giving up on contributing code
to Exim, because it is so laborious.
