Efraim, was this an oversight or you were waiting to upload the new
release?

OK; there doesn't seem to be anything particular on the build farm, per
(sysadmin services) in the guix-maintenance repository:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define* (guix-daemon-config #:key (max-jobs 5) (cores 4)
                             (build-accounts-to-max-jobs-ratio 4)
                             (authorized-keys '()))
  (guix-configuration
   (substitute-urls '())
   (authorized-keys authorized-keys)

   ;; We don't want to let builds get stuck for too long, but we still want
   ;; to allow building, say, Guile 2.2 on armhf-linux, which takes < 3h on
   ;; an OverDrive 1000.
   (max-silent-time 3600)
   (timeout (* 6 3600))

   (log-compression 'gzip)               ;be friendly to 'guix publish' users

   (build-accounts (* build-accounts-to-max-jobs-ratio max-jobs))
   (extra-options (list "--max-jobs" (number->string max-jobs)
                        "--cores" (number->string cores)
                        "--gc-keep-outputs" "--gc-keep-derivations"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And it uses the guix-daemon from the latest Guix package in Guix, so it
doesn't seem to be needed there?
