[minor] t1004-read-tree-m-u-wf.sh no more passes when "root"

Hello,

as I've been used to building and testing Git as root - granted, this goes against what INSTALL guidelines suggest - I have noticed the following : until v1.4.4.4, 'make test' could be successfully run as "root" ; it now (v1.5.5.1) fails on t1004-read-tree-m-u-wf.sh with following output:

* FAIL 13: funny symlink in work tree, un-unlink-able


                rm -fr a b &&
                git reset --hard &&

                git checkout sym-a &&
                chmod a-w a &&
                test_must_fail git read-tree -m -u sym-a sym-a sym-b

Meanwhile I have found out that this isn't a problem for me in practice, since the test-suite passes when run "as myself", still I report this in case it could be a clue for something more serious...

Thanks,
Jérôme
