microbundle fails with '(terser plugin) Error: Call retries were exceeded'

Reproduce el fallo reportado de npm run build en un proyecto microbundle mínimo, empezando por la integración de terser de Rollup y el stack trace de rollup-plugin-terser/jest-worker mostrado en el informe. Compara las advertencias y el fallo del worker entre las versiones de dependencias relevantes; se considera terminado cuando la compilación se completa sin el error de retries o proporciona un fallo confirmado y accionable.

microbundle launches, produces some warnings, and after 6 minutes fails with a terser error:
