bug#44751: tests/swh.scm hangs building guix with guile-2.2

I'm exploring building with guile 2.2 because guile-gnutls built with
guile 3.0 is only available in experimental, and even there, missing for
arm64.

FAIL: tests/swh.scm - lookup-origin

And then hangs indefinitely. I've seen it run for hours at a time. Works
fine with guile 3.0.


In tests/swh.log, there is not much there, though obviously seems
problematic:

warning: cannot run Web server for tests: Address already in use
In thread:
In procedure listen: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting open
file port): #f


I don't have any debian patches applied to tests/swh.scm and do not
think any other patches are likely to affect this here, but you never
know. :)


live well,

I remember issues fixed by 722ad41c44a499d2250c79527ef7d069ca728de0
which maybe introduce a regression for Guile 2.2.

Maybe it is related.
