The patch "test: replace gtester with a TAP driver" contains docker
changes (adding libtest-harness-perl) which trigger a rebuild, your
builds using /master should use the cache.

This might be a problem with this new package (if so, Fam's PR isn't
going to help here).

I'll check and if possible improve the docker.py output to get a more
useful error message.
