Hello Ludo,
I ran the gnulib lock tests with the be95b17ae commit and the tests passed, then with the commit directly before and they failed; so I'm fairly confident.
Attached is an updated patch, which remove the *-gnulib-multi-core patches and disables the test on two more packages (augeas and gsasl). I was able to build most of the packages on gnulib's "users" list (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=users.txt;h=4ea176f2ef622b5c12843ba3d5aa35217c58502b;hb=HEAD) except for octave, because texlive-bin's luajit tests fail on this system.

Subject: Re: Disable gnulib's test-lock test in packages?
Hi Eric,
Eric Bavier <bavier@cray.com> skribis:
> Several packages (libunistring, gettext, and libidn) in the guix bootstrap path hang on the "test-lock" test from gnulib while building on a aarch64 system I have access to. Some of them already have a patch applied that is supposed to fix the hang on system's with large core-counts, but it seems ineffective on my system. The findutils package is also affected, and there may be others, but I haven't discovered them yet.

So are you confident that the above commit fixes the issue?
As you might have seen, we already have
findutils-gnulib-multi-core.patch, gettext-gnulib-multi-core.patch, and
libunistring-gnulib-multi-core.patch, which turned out to be
insufficient to fix the problem.
> Until the updated lock module and tests make its way into these packages, I would like to ask if disabling these tests outright would be acceptable, similar to the attached patch. Thoughts?
Your patch looks like the safest approach; you can also remove
*gnulib-multi-core.patch while you’re at it. Then I think it’s OK for
‘core-updates’.
Thank you!
Ludo’.
