Of course it does work now. :D
Looking at `guix pull --list-generations`, the last two before the bug
are:
Generation 6	Dec 13 2020 01:47:37
  guix 1adeb74
Generation 7	Jan 23 2021 16:47:02
  guix 0288e21


...aaaand I can't see later ones because guix just got killed. Maybe
the code that computes the differences between generations is not
terribly memory efficient...
