Sounds like a bug, preferably it would 100% reliably report the
underlying problem, whatever it is.

I don't think this is a good reason to disable the test.
Disabling tests whenever they fail defeats the point of tests.

Cf. with, say, clinical trials for testing safety of new medical
treatments.  If some drug fails one of the tests (sometimes or always),
then one cannot simply ignore the test.

Greetings,
