Another issue: I changed the GRUB upgrade to use a more recent commit,
which includes the two MIPS patches that are used in wip-loongson2f.

However, GRUB fails one test on x86_64:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
FAIL: grub_func_test
====================

./grub_func_test: line 17: /gnu/store/mnwjrkbfzkb5ifhqf8hssf3cxfvg11l6-coreutils-8.24/bin/tail: Argument list too long
Functional test failure: shift_test:
shift_test: PASS

[...]

 tests/video_checksum.c:checksum:620: assert failed: 0 Checksum videotest_640x480xi16:1 failed: 0x1368a483 vs 0x7f1853ba
 tests/video_checksum.c:checksum:620: assert failed: 0 Checksum videotest_640x480xi16:0 failed: 0x1368a483 vs 0x7f1853ba
videotest_checksum: FAIL
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The video test failure is a showstopper I think, and it would require
quite a bit of work to investigate.

Do you think you could help with these two things?  Otherwise we can
just postpone GuixSD/mips64el to the next release.

TIA,
Ludo’.
