Excellent!  I'm also running GuixSD on a Libreboot X200.

If you pass -d to wpa_supplicant, it will output debugging information.
You can also pass -dd for even more detail.  You might also want to
remove the -B option so that it runs in the foreground when debugging.

You might consider using wicd, the wireless connection daemon, which
might include heuristics to deal with common problems, and anyway it is
quite convenient to use.

If you'd like to use wicd, make these changes to your OS config:

* Add (wicd-service) to 'services', and remove (dhcp-client-service).
* Add wicd to the list passed to 'dbus-service'.
* Add wicd to 'packages'.
