The very first thing I noticed lookng at that commit is it's subject:
"Updated list of unstable tests for 10.1.38 release"
The first comments of that file states:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# List the test cases which, unlike tests from disabled.def files,
# can still be run on the current tree meaningfully, but are known
# or suspected to fail sporadically on different reasons.
#
# Most common reasons are either test failures observed in buildbot,
# or recent modifications to the tests which make their stability
# unknown.
#
# Tests included due to recent modifications are later removed from the
# list, if during a certain period they do not fail (and are not
# modified again). Tests included due to intermittent failures are
# removed when corresponding bug reports are closed.
#
# Separate the test case name and the comment with ':'.
#
# <suitename>.<testcasename> : MDEV-xxxxx - <comment>
#
# '*' wildcard in testcase names is supported.
#
# To use the list, run MTR with --skip-test-list=unstable-tests option.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So *all* those rests _are_ considered unstable upstream.
IMHO they should be *selectively* skipped when they causes build
problems in Guix, including non-deterministic frequent ones like in this
case.

The same is happening upstream:
https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-15198
https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-16040 (duplicate of the above)
https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-15271
That bugs (and all others related to unstable tests) are currently
unresolved.
HTH! Gio'
