On ‘core-updates-frozen’, CMake has one test failure on i686-linux when
building on berlin (e.g., <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/790602/log/raw>):

I cannot reproduce it on hardware with 32 cores.  I suspect it has to do
with the number of threads used for xz compression, which defaults to
the number of cores, and some of the build machines on berlin have way
more cores.

I tried a few times on a machine with 16 cores, and I can't reproduce
either. The build succeeded every time.

My latest attempt is to go as far as setting the number of threads used
by libarchive to 1 (patch attached).  However, that still fails
systematically on berlin’s 32-core build machines.

The Internet doesn’t seem to have much to say about this problem.

Ideas anyone?

(Unrelated to the build failure) you could use target-x86-32? here
to make the code a little simpler:

,@(if (target-x86-32?)
      '((add-after ....))
      '()

Greetings,
Maxime.

Ah yes, definitely!  Thanks for the hint.

Since the bug only seems to manifest on specific machines for reasons
that escape me, I went ahead and arranged to just skip it in commit
f762d63ec072500cd327ec5342c2f5434c267222.
