Using system* instead of invoke would silence the errors as it doesn't
raise on errors.

The real cause of the problem was a09c7da ("tests: Fork and exec a new
Guile for the marionette REPL."), which I've fixed in 1edbadc6 ("tests:
xvnc: Fix 'gdm auto-suspend is disabled' test.").

Thanks for the report!
