On my x86_64-linux system running GuixSD, on my first attempt to update
my system since 'staging' was merged, GNOME Shell consistently fails to
start.  If I switch to tty1 (text console), I see this error message:

The patches you pushed to master fix the problem for me.  Thank you for
taking care of this.  I'm closing this bug now.
