In my limited understanding of what is happening, Guix is not a derivative work of Linux (a "covered work" according to the GPL, so a work based on Linux) because it does not use the source code of Linux. If you were to write a module for Linux (e.g. a driver), it would use a lot of the non-trivial internal APIs, code and data structures defined by and for the kernel, so it would be considered a covered work and you would need to use GPLv2. But this is not the case for Guix. I’m still looking for more specific answers, though.
