bug#49225: Possibly difficult to reproduce GnuTLS build bug?

Hello:

While running `make check-system`, I've encountered an issue with building
GnuTLS (see attached drv file).

Upon re-cloning the repository on the exact same commit, reconfiguring it in
the exact same way and re-running `make check-system`, GnuTLS built just fine.
I'm not quite sure how one could go about debugging this, but it might be good
for this bug report to exist in case others run into it.

For posterity, the log looks like this:

IIUC, this is when cross-compiling GnuTLS to i586-pc-gnu (GNU/Hurd).

This particular error was fixed at the beginning of June:

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48771

Could you confirm that it works for you on current ‘master’?

Thanks, and apologies for the looong delay!

I managed to run it today both on my Guix System and a RHEL box, which would
suggest that it "reproducibly" works :-).

Awesome, closing!
