I have a guix home configuration with herd services (mcron jobs).

When I run guix home reconfigure, and the user herd daemon is

running, then I get the following errors:

herd: exception caught while executing 'load' on service 'root':
In procedure fport_write: Broken pipe

When I run the SAME reconfigure command, but BEFORE running

it executing herd stop root. THEN I do not get this error, and the services

do appear correctly.
