On gettext, commit 1afbcb06fded2a427b761dd1615b1e48e1e853cc seems to fix
the problem. I ran three consecutive tests :

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
mathieu@elbruz /tmp/guix-build-gettext-next-0.19.8.1.drv-0/gettext-0.19.8.1$ 
time ./gettext-tools/gnulib-tests/.libs/test-lock 
Starting test_lock ... OK
Starting test_rwlock ... OK
Starting test_recursive_lock ... OK
Starting test_once ... OK

real    3m50.493s
user    31m15.128s
sys     6m15.440s

Starting test_lock ... OK
Starting test_rwlock ... OK
Starting test_recursive_lock ... OK
Starting test_once ... OK

Starting test_lock ... OK

Starting test_recursive_lock ... OK

real    3m21.155s
user    27m6.328s
sys     5m27.248s
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Tests succeeds in a reasonable time and it can be backported to our
version of gettext.

However, I don't fully understand the difference between commit
1afbcb06fded2a427b761dd1615b1e48e1e853cc in gettext and commit
480d374e596a0ee3fed168ab42cd84c313ad3c89 in gnulib.
