I built these, and here are the results:

Do these match what you built?

For the sake of completeness, I built these by running

  ./pre-inst-env guix build bootstrap-tarballs --system=i686-linux

from a git checkout at commit 5a6465e41a84b4320940d33709b80d78c1aff9d0.

Right, except those commits should be applied to the tip of
'core-updates', and not until we're sure that these new bootstrap
binaries are good.

Ludovic, what do you think?

     Thanks,
