I tried this with my user profile and the script hit the Software heritage 
limit after reporting the status of 33 packages (most of which are not 
archived). So, for the rest of the packages, you are asked to try again later 
(I have 95 packages in my profile).

Is "guix lint -c archival $pkg" supposed to poke Software Heritage to archive 
the $pkg if it is not archived yet? I ask because I ran the script later and I 
got the same output from the first run, i.e., packages reported to be missing 
from Software Heritage were still reported as such, instead of being planned 
for archive.

Also, I got a backtrace when checking icecat:
