Hello Guix,
Latest guix master (2cdf78df2d3d5d88c7e6908754233cf37cce1e61) fails
tests/guix-system.sh for me, on line 128. This seems to be caused by the fact
that the error output contains a multi-character column number:
```
/tmp/bavier/tmpfile:9:14: In procedure #<procedure 3aba2820 ()>:
/tmp/bavier/tmpfile:9:14: GRUB-config: unbound variable
hint: Did you forget a `use-modules' form?
./test-env: line 1: 59998 Terminated
"/home/users/bavier/src/guix/pre-inst-env"
"/home/users/bavier/src/guix/guix-daemon" --disable-chroot
--substitute-urls="$GUIX_BINARY_SUBSTITUTE_URL"
```
Which is not matched by the current grep pattern. This patch fixes the issue
for me, as a follow-up to commit b70d72ac47fdc9364a64bd22962b2e11524e38b2
