thanks for the pointer, I will try a clean build now. I did build locally in
the sense of calling “make”, but it’s possible that I missed some missing
imports — I sometimes get warnings about unresolved variable names that
don’t cause the build to fail, though trying to `guix build` the corresponding
package later does fail.

Is there some `guix build` invocation I could call to build whatever `guix pull`
would build? I imagine that might be where cuirass is failing now?

While running the clean make, I got the following warnings I remember seeing
before — might these be the root of the problem? In that case I’ll see if I’m
too far behind master.

[ 11%] LOAD     guix/scripts/archive.scm
