CC'ing Ekaitz and I'll also relay this to #guix-risc-v. There's quite
some work going on in commencement, we can probably incorporate these.
I think a possible workaround was suggested by Timothy

FWIW, I'm all for this. The longer we wait, the harder it gets? As
soon as everything works, see below...

Building a bare-hurd system on core-updates succeeded "not long ago"
(after the glibc+locales patch series I think) but now fails on

Any ideas what may have happened/changed here? Hmm, it looks like
d21d596f72ad491937123980e65d3efedc903bd6
gnu: gcc: Support objc, objc++ by default.
was probably the problem. Trying the attached patch, Hurd system not
build yet.
