The daemon is run as 'root' on a Guix system, so you need to set this
environment variable for the 'root' user session.  As an example, I set
this in my /root/.bash_profile file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
export COLUMNS=160              # wider Guile backtraces
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

HTH!
