Rene is using a personal branch based with modification based on the
guix-hurd work.

Rene are you still using the binaries I had provided?

Theoretically we could do that. But unfortunately 1) the Guix to Hurd
cross-compilation support breaks faster that I can keep up trying to fix
2) even when we get the binaries we will definitely have issues with the
initial tool-chain.

Can the current master build `guix build --target=i586-pc-gnu
bootstrap-tarballs` ?
