Fixed in 4a6aeb6.

Note that there are still a few cases, in guix/*download.scm, where we
haven’t yet reintroduced #:local-build? #t.  We’ll do that when daemons
with the fix are more widely deployed.

Subject: Fixed-output derivations are not substituted
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2014 17:26:03 +0200
With current ‘master’, fixed-output derivations are not substituted,
even though a substitute is available:

Here, “The following file will be downloaded” means that a substitute is
found and will be used, as seen also in the cache.  But then we find
ourselves performing the derivation locally regardless.
