Hello Tim,

Thanks a lot for this debugging work!

We had a private conversation about this on IRC and I think the reason
you had to skip these commits were because of ABI issues in the git
checkout (incompatible Guile objects).

Current Guix actually warns about it and tells you what to do (very
nice!), but that does not work when bisecting this deep :-)

The surefire approach is to run "make clean-go".  That will almost
certainly get Guix building again, but you also have to compile all the
Scheme code anew.  You could first try something along the lines of
"rm gnu/{services,system,tests}{,/}*.go && make" to save (or waste :-P)
a little time.

Hope this helps!  I think we are almost there.  :-)
