The randomness is 100% reproducible on *certain* machines. Unfortunately,
as you have just checked, barriere was not one of them, but I can offer
ssh access to such a machine. Please contact me privately for details.

Packages which FTBFS randomly are the worst, that's why I always offer ssh
access to a machine where they happen when I report one of those bugs.

Thanks.
