On a new Guix 1.4.0 install, I logged in and ran `herd status` to check
if sshd was running. However, the command blocked indefinitely with no
output. When I cancelled that and tried to shut the machine down with
`halt`, it also blocked and did nothing. The system was not being
reconfigured at the time.

Could it be that your system clock changed drastically, for instance in
response to ntpd synchronization? There’s a bug when that happens:

Thanks,

Yes I think that's it, since the machine was a server that hadn't done
an NTP sync before.
Perhaps we should consider using Fibers 1.1 for all architectures? This
problem occurred on a x86-64 machine. This issue reverted Fibers 1.3
just for ARM:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/64966#6
Based on the Github discussion, it seems this bug isn't a priority for
the Fibers maintainers, and it has been an outstanding (and seemingly
common) issue for almost a year now.

With https://issues.guix.gnu.org/70892#3 Fibers is also reverted to 1.1
on RISC-V 64.
