Yeah, this test is useful for coreutils, with its 100+ programs
but less so for others.

I don't see an easy, general way to detect the conditions in which
the test would produce a false positive.
Best might be to skip it altogether or list
the offending .c files in .x-sc_program_name.

In coreutils, that's what I did for a few:

    $ cat .x-sc_program_name
    gl/lib/randint.c
    lib/euidaccess-stat.c
    gl/tests/test-mbsalign.c
