Some questions:

* What's the hash of gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/bash?

  (Run guix hash gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/bash)

  I have 1ig8a4bhc7fpw8zrnw4l568wmmcb29rlwg4jbih3imb4x6d9l1gd.
  If you see something different, your copy is probably corrupt.

* What does ‘objdump -a gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/bash’ output?
  On my x86_64 system, it outputs ‘[...] file format elf32-i386’.

* What architecture are you on?

  You can test with:

  $ echo '((@ (guix utils) %current-system))' | guix repl

  On my x86_64-linux system, it outputs

  [...]
  $1 = "x86_64-linux"
  scheme@(guix-user)>.

If your system isn't i686-linux or x86_64-linux, something odd is going on.

Greetings,
Maxime.
