Boots of Fortitude (in General)

Wiki says they provide the bonus to "your other minions". Does this mean my first minion, while alive and wearing these boots gets no benefit from having them on, just my other minions?

Correct

Just as a snide remark; from all the testing I have done so far with them other minions getting a benefit from them is questionable as well >:)

I seem to get the boost to my DD, though I haven't tested it extensively.

I'd have to agree with horse. I don't see much benefit to leadership and it is hard to verify that it is working as intended.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was bugged out and has been a lie all along ;)

Here is a small data set I just gathered:

5,378,155
4,674,183
5,381,443
5,123,855
5,534,572
5,565,296
4,469,570
4,848,205
5,223,010
5,478,001
===========
5,167,629


4,401,693
4,008,443
3,751,301
4,176,514
4,718,961
4,104,776
4,124,900
3,790,833
4,974,750
4,376,215
===========
4,242,838.6

These are the average DD hits I landed on Hydra Reborn with (1st set) and without (2nd set) my +38 BoF. On average I appear to be doing 21.8% more damage with the boots on.

This is hardly perfect data but Leadership appears to be working.

Well, at the very least it looks like it is working for DD.

It's possible due to my small DD and the possibility of some bad luck I didn't see quite that big of an improvement.
