Also, $HOME is set in all my build envs (pass or fail), and
permissions are the same. Bummer.

It took more runs to get some fails now, and archs vary, so I still
think its a time out. And no way to get it locally so far.

ENOLISP (for me) but could it be the case that notmuch-test-wait can
abort its while loop too early if the first buffer write takes longer
than the timeout, or if some other process writes (because the process
parameter is nil)? Is something different for emacs 29 in this regard?
Any clues from sbuild?
