This seems to be the interesting bit:

******** build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/log/regress_log_039_end_of_wal
********
No such file or directory at
/home/myon/projects/postgresql/debian/13/build/../src/test/perl/TestLib.pm
line 655.

I assume that must be coming from:

my @scan_result = scan_server_header('access/xlog_internal.h',

... which reaches:

    open my $header_h, '<', "$stdout/$header_path" or die "$!"; <-- line 655

Not sure yet what is different in this environment or why you're
suddenly noticing on 13.17.  The logic has been there since 13.13 (ie
it was backpatched then).
