There are two distinctions that need to be made:

1. The package builds on a single machine with `guix build 
--no-substitutes --rounds=N foo`.

2. The result of `guix challenge foo` is clean.

As noted in "Invoking 'guix challenge'", the latter requires the former, 
but both would be interesting to test, catalog, and display.
