I understand that updated headers are needed in order for the new
version of VLC to compile successfully. Please see attached. I hope
this is sufficient.
Also, since Alexandre Oliva periodically removes tarballs so as to
free up space on the virtual machine that hosts these, it might also
be a good idea to put a copy of linux-libre-3.18.11-gnu.tar.xz in
http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guix/mirror/ along with the current version
3.3.8.

We should try first to update vlc.

This is the oldest open bug in guix:
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=14851
(Well, I would argue it is a bug of linux-libre.)
The project really should upload the tarballs to ftp.gnu.org.

Updating linux-libre-headers entails a full rebuild of everything in
Guix. As Andreas noted, I updated it to the latest LTS (3.14.37) in the
core-updates branch, which will hopefully be merged to master within a
few days.
Is 3.14.x new enough? Should I have chosen differently? If we need to
change it, we'll have to wait for the next core-updates cycle.
More generally, what should be our policy on how to choose a version for
linux-libre-headers?

Indeed, we should keep a copy of the source tarball for our
linux-libre-headers there. I don't know that I have the necessary
access to do that, so I guess that's a job for Ludovic.

Yes, I know. It was on my To Do list & I hadn't picked up on that the
update was already done so never mind.
