Guix package fails to build because of a test error (see the last lines of the
full build log:
https://ci.guix.gnu.org/log/f5if2qb5rsqag3a6jy5vga1l9hm9pkj0-dovecot-2.3.9.3).
As the name suggests, this is dovecot 2.3.9.3, the latest version. Previous
versions built fine, as well as the same version on x86 and x86_64. Note that
the build on guix's build farm was done in a qemu vm, but I got the same
test failure on real hardware.

(sorry for the previous mail, client acted up...)

Can you provide backtrace for the core file? This seems to be related to
libunwind somehow.
