Success!  I built one of the affected packages on the build VM.

Hi Noé,

Manually restarting the guix-daemon with `--max-jobs=0` seems to do nothing.  (According to the manual it should force offloading.)

Setting --max-jobs to 0 does force offloading for normal builds, but not for --check builds (those are just ran locally anyway).

I would think that is a bug, because I would expect that specifying --max-jobs=0 would mean no jobs at all.

But I already built the packages I wanted to test yesterday (by setting my hardware clock), and they are now live, so I can't delete them.

Instead, I made a innocuous change to one of the packages, forcing a new build, which was successfully offloaded to the VM and then successfully built.
