from the log:
FAIL: mkdir("/", 777) = -1 (wanted -1); errno = EACCES:13 [Permission denied] (wanted EEXIST:17 [File exists])

that's weird because we have logic to check to see if paths exist and return EEXIST explicitly first.  that failing would imply some path checks aren't working.
[s] vapier@vapier $ ./mkdir-0 -1,EEXIST / 777
 * absolute_path: .../sandbox/tests/mkdir-0
 * resolved_path: .../sandbox/tests/mkdir-0
 * ACCESS ALLOWED:  execve:       .../sandbox/tests/mkdir-0
 * EARLY FAIL: mkdir(/[/]) @ lstat: Success
PASS: mkdir("/", 1411) = -1 (wanted -1); errno = EEXIST:17 [File exists] (wanted EEXIST:17 [File exists])

does this failure happen consistently for you ?  please re-open if so, and we can dig deeper into your setup.
