The fix for https://issues.guix.gnu.org/54812 seems to have caused some fallout:

  eeb8ac43c8c0b0cc69422766070dbefc55f5c5c1 services: shepherd: Do not unload 
transient services.
  a2c759c8304c461d096ab763568e7f71546ff4e8 services: herd: Report whether a 
service is transient.

These allow guix pull to work:

  ec6a585ee2fd91c857276479411eedd0756e0093 services: Test 
'shepherd-service-upgrade' with transient services.
  e25eca35ff04e4234d0376fbb9a8e146869772c8 services: herd: Adjust to 
<live-service> changes.

But it appears guix system reconfigure still needs more work:

$ sudo -E guix system reconfigure ~/config.scm
