Since failures seem to be related to shells, probably we should wait for shells to close?

That sounds like a possible fix.

The problem is how to debug such situations, or understand where the
problem is in such a huge suite; not to mention that this happens during
the maven build... 

The error report shows you the test that is failing.

is there a way to tell mvn to execute a single test
(or a set of tests)?

Yes, just add "-Dtest=org.eclipse.swtbot.TestClassName" to the command line when running Maven.

it's kind of strange that I'm the only one experiencing that... my
laptop is a quad-core but it's two years old, I guess there are faster
machines around there nowadays ;)

Yes. But that kind of thing doesn't depend only on hardware, and can for example depend on the window manager or other stuff. I didn't hear about a similar issue so far.
