I run the tests with the proprietary drivers in a GNU/Linux box.

NVidia and AMD are a mess with respect to this. Some pass, some not.

My conclusion is that their implementation depends on the specific
layout-qualifier-name tested. Therefore, if with, let's say
max_vertices, they don't allow duplicates with different values, they
will fail in all the cases; with duplicates in a single layout-
qualifier or among several in the same declaration, no matter
if ARB_shading_language_420pack or ARB_enhanced_layouts are supported.

If duplicates with different values are allowed for the layout-
qualifier-name tested, then the ones failing will be the negative
tests. A mess ...

Let's drop this by now. It is always easy to add more tests later.

Oh, right, it is stupid to test for the absence in 2 different places.
Good catch.
