Okay, here's what happened:

1.  I found a bug in Guix that I wanted to report.
2.  I checked the manual, which directed me to https://issues.guix.gnu.org/.
3.  That page directed me to "submit your patches or email
bug-guix@gnu.org to open a new issue."  There were no further
instructions, so I guessed that sending an email with the body "help"
would return one with instructions on how to file an actual bug
report.
4.  Instead, that filed a bug reporting "help."

Perhaps this bug could be repurposed into one about improving the
instructions for reporting bugs.  :)  Now I'll file the real bug
report...
