An addendum. This comes from the check-ignore patch and seems to manifest itself when the test is run under /bin/dash (not bash).

Due to the mini-harness the test introduces, the output from running the script with "-v -i" was not very helpful, and I stopped digging at that point.

$ dash t0008-ignores.sh -i -v
...
expecting success:
                expect "$expect" &&
                eval "$code"

not ok - 64 existing tracked file at top-level not ignored # # expect "$expect" && # eval "$code" #
