Going by the README.md, this font is based on 
<https://github.com/IdreesInc/Minecraft-Font>:

>   * The characters in this font were based around the typeface

According at the README.md of 
<https://github.com/IdreesInc/Minecraft-Font>,

> The font has been carefully recreated pixel-by-pixel
, it is the same font as used in Minecraft.

Minecraft is non-free software.  It is possible that Minecraft's fonts 
have a separate free license,
but unless someone brings evidence of the contrary, I would assume that 
the copy (*) is not
allowed by Minecraft's license and that it does not allow letting the 
license of the modified font be silofl1.1.

As such, unfortunately it appears this cannot be included in Guix (and 
neither anywhere else).

Greetings,
Maxime
