There was a small time window during which glibc-intermediate was broken
on i686.  This was fixed on April 30th:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=c2e4f14ac8cd3e1ce7f46a192ad0c9acc084b210

One way to work around the issue might be:

  mv ~/.config/guix/latest{,.bak}
  guix pull

Could you try this?

Thanks for reporting the issue,
Ludo’.
