Hello Guix,

Unlike Hydra, Curiass don't honor 'timeout' and 'max-silent-time'
properties[0]. This lead to some packages never having substitutes, in
particular for the 'armhf-linux' system for example 'linux-libre' or
'guile-static-stripped'[1]. Which mean it's really difficult to use such
systems since each users need to build thoses really long running[2]
packages. We also don't know if thoses package may fail for a reason other
than timing out.
