Well, that patch does indeed "paper over" the CI problems.

Christopher Baines has graciously given me access to his Overdrive 1000
(monokuma), so I am able to test building packages on bare-metal
aarch64.

I'm testing building sbcl-cambl on it now. That is the package that
spurred this bug report.

Unfortunately, the aarch64 emulation we are using on berlin does cause a
lot of failures that can't be reproduced on real hardware. We are using
QEMU, right? If so, there is a new major QEMU update available on
guix-patches, and maybe that would fix some problems:

As I mentioned in that patch submission, there are some minor issues
with the update, but maybe we should just go for it.
