You are right! Somehow the source tarballs had gotten corrupted.

When I tried to untar one of the tarballs manually, it was so corrupted
that it failed to unpack it, which makes me wonder how it actually got
as far as trying to build the kernel...

I 'guix gc'ed them and was able to successfully build after a few tries
and freeing up more and more disk space.

The worried part of me wonders if there is bad hardware, ram, disk or
cpu...

But seems to be working for now!

live well,
