Karel, I have installed util-linux v2.39 in LFS and have run into a
problem with one test, test_mkfds. Actually the test passes, but does
not clean up after itself. What is left over is:

tester 32245 1 0 15:43 ? 00:00:00 /sources/util-linux-2.39/test_mkfds
-q udp 3 4 server-port=34567 client-port=23456 server-do-bind=1
client-do-bind=1 client-do-connect=1
tester 32247 1 0 15:43 ? 00:00:00 /sources/util-linux-2.39/test_mkfds
-q udp6 3 4 lite=1 server-port=34567 client-port=23456
server-do-bind=1 client-do-bind=1 client-do-connect=1

It's possible it may be due to something we are doing inside our
chroot environment, but we've not had this type of problem with
earlier versions of util-linux.

In all I do have:

All 261 tests PASSED

but the left over processes interfere later when we try to remove the
non-root user, tester, that runs the tests. I can work around the
problem by disabling test_mkfds, but thought you would like to know.

Thank you for reporting.
Reproduced on my PC. I found two processes were not killed properly.

Could you try the following change?

diff --git a/tests/ts/lsfd/option-inet b/tests/ts/lsfd/option-inet
index 21e66f700..70cc3798d 100755

I will do that, but will not be able to get to it until late tomorrow, but will report back asap.

Thanks for looking at this.
