Wouldn't that have the same effect? My system has an offload set up and somehow --cores=1 does not work, so I needed this patch to make sure, also to optimize run-time I tried to disable parallel build only for gcc. I also tried to build only the gcc-static binary with: $ ./pre-inst-env guix build --cores=1 --target=powerpc64le-linux-gnu -e '(@@ (gnu packages make-bootstrap) %gcc-static)'
