This "... create-home-directory? ..." commit is eb56ee027 actually:

I think that commit is an ABI-breaking thing. Try to do "make clean-go"
and remake the guix checkout again.
Specifically, that commit didn't touch (gnu services base) module, so
'guix-build-accounts' procedure still produces guixbuilder users
accounts in an "old" format. It's just my guess though, but "make
clean-go" should work.
