I tried doing a "guix pull" for armhf-linux on a Raspberry Pi 2 B
(Raspberry Pi OS with Guix as package manager), and also on a more
powerful x86_64 machine with "guix pull -s armhf-linux -p /tmp/arm-guix",
but it fails in both cases when building "guix-packages-base.drv" (more
precisely the process hangs, CPU usage at 0 and memory around 2 or
3 GB).

The build log ends with:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Does someone have an idea how to fix this?
