I see it failing on my system (Debian unstable).  But I have some more
patches on top of master.

Most likely the test passes because emacs is run in server mode and
visibility stuff works differently.  I sent a patch series [1] to run
emacs in screen exactly for this reason.  Please consider pushing it.
Then the test should fail as expected.

Note, if you push the series, a new dependency would be required to run
the tests - screen(1).  Also, the emacs tests should handle missing
screen(1) better using prereqs.  But there are no prereqs for emacs and
gpg anyway... [2]
