Oof, you are right about this.  Where did that tarball go?
We have it cached on hydra.  You can download it with

    guix build -S linux-libre-headers

when substitutes are enabled.  Alternatively, you could fetch this

    https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org/nar/51f2f2ck80migsfr2hwy4ds30966lifi-linux-libre-4.4.18-gnu.tar.xz

Note that this is a nar wrapped in a layer of bzip2 compression, because
that’s what hydra does for everything.  You can unpack with bunzip2 and
then use “guix archive --extract” to turn it into a regular tarball.

I’ll open a bug report about the broken URL.  Thanks for the report!
