I just checked and the latter has a different SHA256
(1860as3dwh7f3im1sq3x06awmil9vppl6igg2gnva5w9mbkw2fc8).

Indeed.

Since we’re about to release a new version of Guix, I’d rather keep
using 3.3.8.

Alexandre: could you reinstate the original
http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/3.3.8-gnu/linux-libre-3.3.8-gnu.tar.xz?

It would be ideal if the tarballs were on ftp.gnu.org.  I could do it if
you don’t want to bother, provided the FTP admins allow it.  WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
