I can confirm that this happens for me, also.  I wasn't sure if it was a
bug or not, so I didn't comment on it, but it certainly seems incorrect.
Since this affects multiple people using GuixSD, perhaps we should file
a bug report about it.  Could you do that by emailing bug-guix@gnu.org?

Giovanni Biscuolo recommended some possible avenues for investigation.
Did you discover any more information about this issue?
