I've seen this failure consistently on one of the machines behind bordeaux.guix.gnu.org, you can see the full logs via following the "View build" links here [1].
1: http://data.guix.gnu.org/gnu/store/xd8rnmr0k3fhfhilzi66hnggsnx67d5i-binutils-mesboot1-2.14.drv I've tried building multiple times on the machine where the failures occurred, and it's not once succeeded. >From looking at the kept build directory, the config.status file doesn't exist.
