It seems flaky to me since about we run on bullseye hosts...

And the problem with flaky tests is that you can be lucky or unlucky, 
but it doesn't tell anything about the changes you made.

E.g.
https://ci.debian.net/user/britney/jobs?package=openvpn-auth-ldap&;
trigger=migration-reference%2F0&suite%5B%5D=testing&arch%5B%5D=amd64
has the first "recent" failure on 2021-09-05 08:44:09 UTC with version 
2.0.4-1. Given the timing, that may have been after some gcc update.

On arm64 [1] the first failure in pure testing I see on 2021-10-08 
20:21:26 UTC.

On i386 [2] the test nearly always fails since 2021-08-19 10:32:50 UTC.

On ppc64el [3] I'm not seeing any failures.

On s390x [4] it failed twice, first time on 2021-04-20 17:41:17 UTC, but 
s390x always ran on a bullseye host.
