This is because the regular binutils package was recently 'hidden' due
to an upstream bug, and 'binutils-gold' accidentally inherited the
'hidden?' property.

I fixed the inheritance in 4a13050b877f9058414f4b7633e423726e9bbb32, so
you should be able to install it (again) after a 'guix pull'.

Thanks for reporting the issue!  :-)
