Those are routinely broken on master and should not be run as part of CI until they are fixed.

Broken CI is worse than no CI, as it teaches people to ignore errors.

Sorry but I don't agree. They are working most of the time. There is just a new issue which need to be fixed. Not the CI to be disabled

@sylvestre What's the solution then? Since those tests got added, half of my (merged) PRs ran into this thing being broken, and every time it consumes a bunch of my (very limited) time and energy to check that it's indeed unrelated to my changes.

See #2143 and #1842, where I already raised that issue and pointed out the “GNU tests” are taken directly from coreutils/coreutils' HEAD.
