Perfect, thanks a lot! I managed to setup a job on my CI. I just call your
script to build GDB and run and process test.

There's one little thing - the script uses `--with-guile=guile-2.2`. My build
nodes have no guile-2.2, only `guile` which is an alias for `guile-3.0` so I
have to patch the script to use just `--with-guile`.

Thanks! Interestingly, my build of 1b1be68b9 (using your script) shows
only 6 failures wheres "your" [1] build shows 72750 failures...
