This is just how the build ends, not necessarily the relevant part.
I've put several build logs here:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/execnet/
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and
affects,
so that this is still visible in the page for this package.
The bug should be reproducible with sbuild on a single CPU virtual machine,
provided you try enough times (as the failure happens randomly).
Thanks.
