[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The problem appears to be only with `debug-on-error'. However, there are
cases where you cannot control it at all, e.g. with ERT (probably also
Buttercup or any other testing framework). In effect, an ERT test fails for
a "random" reason, depending on which machine it is executed, i.e. it fails
inside that Docker container.
