Thanks to Santiago, I've managed to reproduce the issue on that test
machine, but also to test a tentative patch, inspired by positive
results there:

  https://bugs.debian.org/880351#12

The attached patch does the trick, but instead of sorting (or here,
reverse-sorting) the list of tests to run, I've chosen to encode a
sequence of tests that makes the test suite run OK. This way, it should
be obvious when new tests are added, so that one can find and document
a suitable sequence of tests.

I intend to NMU the package in the upcoming days (or team-upload it,
as proposed in #88035 already), with this patch or with a more simple
one based on a simpler “| LC_ALL=C sort -r” addition, as you wish.


Cheers,
