This seems very unlikely to be a Guix-specific problem,
presumably the ratio FreeCAD users/bug-guix people
is almost (though not exactly!) zero, and FreeCAD is
relatively unimportant in Guix (compared to, say, bash, guile and
linux(-libre)), so you are much more likely
to find help (+ bug fix?) on https://forum.freecadweb.org.

The only thing guix could realistically do, is updating the FreeCAD
package after the fix has been made upstream. Hence, closing,
but feel free to reopen once things have been fixed upstream, as
a reminder that FreeCAD needs to be updated, or if somehow this problem
is guix-specific.

Greetings,
Maxime
