Fw: Is this on the list of things to change? Fw: [EXTERNAL][GitHub API] Deprecation notice for authentication via URL query parameters

Hello,

Getting guix setup on a machine and ran into the following when running `refresh` after adding a github API key.

Hi @josh-marshall-jax,

On February 19th, 2020 at 13:49 (UTC) your personal access token (for work desktop guix) using GNU Guile was used as part of a query parameter to access an endpoint through the GitHub API:

https://api.github.com/repositories/32202720/releases

Please use the Authorization HTTP header instead, as using the `access_token` query parameter is deprecated. If this token is being used by an app you don't have control over, be aware that it may stop working as a result of this deprecation.

Depending on your API usage, we'll be sending you this email reminder on a monthly basis for each token and User-Agent used in API calls made on your behalf.
Just one URL that was accessed with a token and User-Agent combination will be listed in the email reminder, not all.

Visit https://developer.github.com/changes/2020-02-10-deprecating-auth-through-query-param for more information about suggested workarounds and removal dates.

Thanks,
The GitHub Team

After adding it, it still fails with the following:
```

After adding what, exactly?  The patch in the bug report?  Are you 
sure you're invoking the right (patched) guix command?

Kind regards,
