This commit or some preceding cl-* ones broke ecl-seedable-rng,
according to notifications from the CI:

ecl-seedable-rng.x86_64-linux on master is broken

Potentially related failures:

- sbcl-cl-freetype2 (https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/2584694/details)
- ecl-origin (https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/2580823/details)

See: https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/2585168/details

Hi.

Locally I can build sbcl-cl-freetype2 and ecl-origin without issue.

Concerning ecl-seedable-rng, there's something funny going on. The build
details on the CI list only 1 dependency (ecl-ironclad), but there
should be 3; ecl-cl-pcg and ecl-golden-utils are missing. And it is in
fact the ecl-cl-pcg dependency that fails to build (because of a test).
However, neither ecl-cl-pcg nor its dependencies have been updated
recently, so why did the CI need to rebuild it, and why did it start
failing?

Tests can sometimes be flaky (fail non-deterministically).  The best
course of action in these situations is to 1. report the problem
upstream and 2. disable the test in our packaging.  Re-titling
accordingly.

Cuirass mixing up derivations is tracked in bug #65505.
