Hello,

Thanks for the bug report!

> Also I had to cheat a bit to get past automakes "t/output-order.sh" test where the guile build driver is leaking "GC Warning: Repeated allocation of very large block" onto stderr confusing the test (similar problem to https://issues.guix.gnu.org/73181). I added env["GC_LARGE_ALLOC_WARN_INTERVAL"] = "100" to DerivationGoal::startBuilder() and used the slightly patched daemon to build automake without changing the derivation.

Uh, sounds terrible.

Apparently the ‘shepherd’ process was terminated by the ‘timeout’
command, meaning that the test hanged for more than 3 minutes.

I failed to reproduce it on Linux (without ‘signalfd’ and without
‘PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER’), and I have yet to build dependencies in my
childhurd to try it natively…

This one is a bug fixed in Shepherd commit

This one also hanged more than 3m it seems.

To be continued…
