Thanks! I pushed as 9c8156507abeb15f6d3816800c077fd99f861e3d

The question of "should it be grafted" depends on how many packages
depend on it:

$ guix refresh -l opendoas
No dependents other than itself: opendoas@6.8

If `guix refresh` reports that more than 300 packages will be rebuilt,
security updates should use grafts, as specified in the manual section
Submitting Patches:

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html

We don't want to wait for a 'staging' or 'core-updates' cycle for
security updates, so grafts let us cheat and push things directly to
master, without requiring expensive recompilation of dependent packages.

I know you could have pushed this yourself, although I did it on your
behalf. Now that we've clarified the use case of grafts, please feel
free to push things like this without review :)

The manual section Commit Access offers some guidelines:

"For patches that just add a new package, and a simple one, it’s OK to
commit, if you’re confident (which means you successfully built it in a
chroot setup, and have done a reasonable copyright and license
auditing). Likewise for package upgrades, except upgrades that trigger a
lot of rebuilds (for example, upgrading GnuTLS or GLib)."
