Not sure that's likely in the case of zlib?

There are non-technical issues with me doing active work on nodejs
package but from a quick glance the log does not seem particularly
plausibly related to zlib, and I note that the failures are

   not ok 498 parallel/test-debugger-heap-profiler
   not ok 962 parallel/test-fs-utimes-y2K38 # TODO : Fix flaky test 

the second of which especially doesn't inspire confidence that this is
due to zlib rather than general updates to unstable setting off an
already flaky test (eg, the kernel changed timing?).  Full log is:

   https://ci.debian.net/packages/n/nodejs/testing/i386/41176091/

and looking at:

   https://ci.debian.net/packages/n/nodejs/testing/i386/

there seem to be a number of packages triggering what from spot checks
look to be the same or similar issues in nodejs in testing.

I frankly don't really know what I'm supposed to do with this, the test
results look like noise as far as zlib is concerned so I don't see
anything to fix or investigate in the package itself.  AFAICT bugs don't
get filed for autopkgtest failures like they do for build failures so
perhaps this was just missed up until now?
