We'd actually love some help debugging this issue. As you can see from
the list archives, we have indeed been seeing this for a little while:

  
https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/reproducible-builds/Week-of-Mon-20230828/thread.html

… as well as some threads in later weeks.

However, are unsure whether this an issue with:

a) The system running tests.reproducible-builds.org (which, I believe,
was upgraded around the time this issue appeared?)

b) The code in diffoscope itself (which is somewhat unlikely, as there
have not been meaningful changes that might cause crashes or
timeouts.)

c) An issue in some tool or utility that diffoscope calls.

d) Some other issue.

However, Holger will likely have the most up-to-date information on
this, even if that is "I have no new information :-("
