I replied privately, but I can't replicate this on the OS X that I have
available (19.4.0) and I suspect that his might be a collision between
the ports used in the test and something listening on locally. The
relevant section of your log seems consistent with this.

openssh/regress/failed-ssh.log:

You should be able to override the default port number using
$TEST_SSH_PORT, e.g. "make tests TEST_SSH_PORT=23456"
