Description
Occasionally our CI workers seem to be failing to finish the build of the stdlib pkg images, e.g. here:
https://buildkite.com/julialang/julia-master/builds/30327#018bf1bc-f65b-4903-9bdb-682013cdc24f
I feel like I've mostly seen this on the macOS workers, but it's very possible that's just a scheduling difference.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked Buildkite failure for the stdlib pkgimages build, comparing its behavior with successful runs and checking whether the failure is specific to macOS workers. Done means identifying the intermittent failure cause and making the CI build complete reliably, with a regression check for the affected job.
