Hi there!

We’re not done yet but there’s been some progress!

This one’s still open!  Whoever fixes it gets a free e-beverage of their
choice, a free variable, and full recognition.

“Fixed” in 285f3b58c6665ea9e347f5a5df1fc26fe49dc7bb.

Fixed: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49485>.

Fixed: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49417>.

Status: <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/jobset/core-updates>.

On x86_64, the MinGW cross-toolchain needs love (notably
‘binutils-mingw-w64-timestamp.patch’ no longer applies):
<https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/660857/details>.
