Even with these patches (on wip-hurd now), gcc-toolchain still depends
on glibc-2.35 for offload builds, as you can see when doing

    ./pre-inst-env guix build --system=i568-gnu -d gcc-toolchain

from GNU/Linux.  When running this same build in a childhurd, the
glibc-2.35 dependency is gone.  Note that gcc-final, i.e.

    ./pre-inst-env guix build --system=i568-gnu -d \
       -e '(@@ (gnu packages commencement) gcc-final)'

does not depend ond glibc-2.35, but both glibc-final and
glibc-final-with-bootstrap-bash build 2.35 when using --system.

I've tried some things and don't know how to fix this.

Greetings,
Janneke

PS: I have patches for glibc-locales/hurd and glibc-utf8-locales/hurd
that seem to work OK, but I'm not sure if we even want/need those?
