Perhaps we don’t see the problem when running i686 code on x86_64.

Could you first check if there’s a simple way to reproduce it on your
machine?  For example, run “guix build coreutils” or “guix build
coreutils --check” and see if that fails.

If it does, you could arrange to test the patch just in this setup.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
