The build procedure remains unchanged (info "(guix) Bootstrapping"):

  guix build bootstrap-tarballs

To verify them, you can do what I described in this thread, which is to
use the same commit as Janneke and myself used, run =E2=80=9Cguix build
bootstrap-tarballs=E2=80=9D, and compare the three tarballs listed above.
