524: test_write_filter_zstd (202 failures)

FAIL bsdtar_test (exit status: 1)

the failures unusual:

  • large numbers of builders (and the nixpkgs CI system) pass. 5/6 of the builders I tested on pass
  • the one repeatable failure I observed is on a Hetzner VM, which is repeatable with both 3.7.2 and 3.7.3
  • nix measure inputs, and only the measured inputs are available to the builder in a container; the sandboxing is fairly robust
