It would be nice if someone could comment on that bug who better
understands the bootstrap requirements for the guix toolchain. Note
that this is relevant to other packages too because we are very eager
to improve the debugability of the whole toolchain and so have
submitted patches to various core packages to support debuginfod-client=20
like binutils, gdb, annocheck, etc. Which means they all eventually
depend on everything libcurl depends on:
