Bah, it appears ci.guix.gnu.org currently just doesn’t build for
armhf-linux.  Bordeaux does not offer the needed Cuirass API.

I believe but do not know that Bordeaux does not actually build the
latest guix, just the packages.

I don’t know if offering the latest guix would even be feasible.
Probably not?  armhf builds take a long time.
