I've worked out how to run the test manually. Just run:

./check-guile 00-repl-server.test

in the guile build directory.  It passes more often than not and
only fails occasionally.  I see that there is a patch in the
debian/patches directory to avoid a race condition in this test.
But I don't know guile so don't understand the code.

I could try building again and hope we get a successful build soon...

Cheers,
Michael.
