Subject: error: failed to load 'gnu/tests/install.scm': No such file or directory

Hi Guix,

Today I have again been blocked by an error that I get occasionally when
trying to run Guix from source. I follow the usual steps:

 - ./bootstrap
 - ./configure –localstatedir=/var
 - make

until I see

   [ 48%] LOAD     gnu/tests/guix.scm
   [ 48%] LOAD     gnu/tests/monitoring.scm
   [ 48%] LOAD     gnu/tests/nfs.scm
   [ 49%] LOAD     gnu/tests/install.scm
   error: failed to load 'gnu/tests/install.scm': No such file or directory

It always happens at the same point, it's always
'gnu/tests/install.scm', and yet there is nothing obviously
wrong with that file (which definitely exists).

From experience, I know that in a few days, after updating Guix, it will
work again, and then one day I'll run into the same bug once more.

Is this a known problem? Better yet, with known solutions or
workarounds?

Cheers,
  Konrad.
