Thanks for reporting that.
Would you please repeat that test with
a small change to tests/chgrp/no-x:

In place of this line,

  chgrp -R $g2 d >/dev/null 2>out && fail=1

use this:

  strace -o /tmp/chgrp-log chgrp -R $g2 d >/dev/null 2>out && fail=1

and then /tmp/chgrp-log should give us a clue about why that
chgrp invocation is succeeding when it shouldn't.

It might be useful also to see the output of running that
test in verbose mode:

  cd coreutils &&
    env VERBOSE=yes DEBUG=yes make check -C tests/chgrp TESTS=no-x \
      > test-log 2>&1
