This reminds me of a bug that I found in the Guile binding in GnuTLS a
while ago, but forgot to report.  Maybe it's related:

In 'set_certificate_file' in gnutls-3.5.9/guile/src/core.c:

  static unsigned int
  set_certificate_file (certificate_set_file_function_t set_file,
                        SCM cred, SCM file, SCM format, const char *func_name)
  #define FUNC_NAME func_name
  {
    int err;
    char *c_file;
    size_t c_file_len;
  
    gnutls_certificate_credentials_t c_cred;
    gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t c_format;
  
    c_cred = scm_to_gnutls_certificate_credentials (cred, 1, FUNC_NAME);
    SCM_VALIDATE_STRING (2, file);
    c_format = scm_to_gnutls_x509_certificate_format (format, 3, FUNC_NAME);
  
    c_file_len = scm_c_string_length (file);
    c_file = alloca (c_file_len + 1);
  
    (void) scm_to_locale_stringbuf (file, c_file, c_file_len + 1);
    c_file[c_file_len] = '\0';
  
    err = set_file (c_cred, c_file, c_format);
    if (EXPECT_FALSE (err < 0))
      scm_gnutls_error (err, FUNC_NAME);
  
    /* Return the number of certificates processed.  */
    return ((unsigned int) err);
  }

'scm_c_string_length' is inappropriately assumed to return the length
of the encoded C string in bytes, whereas it actually returns the
number of characters (code points).

This led to:

stat("/etc/ssl/certs/AC_Ra\303\255z_Certic\303\241mara_S.A.:2.15.7.126.82.147.123.224.21.227.87.240.105.140.203.236.12.pem", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=2444, ...}) = 0
open("/etc/ssl/certs/AC_Ra\303\255z_Certic\303\241mara_S.A.:2.15.7.126.82.147.123.224.21.227.87.240.105.140.203.236.12.p", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

While doing this:

The problem can be worked around by using the C locale:

mhw <at> jojen ~$ LC_ALL=C guix import gem rails

  (name "ruby-rails")
  (version "5.1.0")
  (source
    (origin
