bug#69279: Can't build pine64 image on x86-64-linux host

Hi Guix,

I'm on a x86-64-linux (Guix System) host at commit 
7d6550eec7fe98517a2096d55760a4d5be3ad8ef. I have the binfmt service for 
aach64. I'm trying to build the example images in 
gnu/system/images/pine64.scm.

However, when I try with `guix system image pine64.scm` the build for 
gawk-mesboot fails with the attached log.

If instead I try with `guix system image --system=aarch64-linux 
pine64.scm` u-boot fails with the attached log.

Best,
Jack

I got access to an aarch64 machine, and the u-boot build fails there as 
well with the error:

```

error: in phase 'set-environment': uncaught exception:
match-error "match" "no matching pattern" #f

```

CI show it as green though. I guess the build hasn't been attempted again 
yet? https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/3348257/details
