Yeah, I can reproduce the problem here on my OS X test box. It seems to be related to core.ignorecase. If you put

  git config core.ignorecase false

at the top of t7061, it passes on OS X. Likewise, if you set it to true, it will start failing on Linux.

So it looks like a real bug, not a test-portability issue.

No, but it does not hurt anything.
