The following patch adds a GUIX_DISABLE_NETWORK_TESTS environment variable and disables tests that require network access when it is set. This is needed for packaging GNU Guix in Debian, where packaging policies prohibit network access during builds, but may not technically block network access during builds. If this could be considered for the upcoming 1.2 release, that would be appreciated, though I can also carry the patches in Debian... live well, vagrant
