Heavy handedly sprinkling (test-skip 1):

  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/guix/-/blob/debian/devel/debian/patches/0029-tests-swh.scm-Disable-tests-the-fail-with-guile-2.2.patch
  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/guix/-/blob/debian/devel/debian/patches/0032-Disable-origin-visit-no-snapshots-test.patch

It would be nice to be able to automatically skip tests using known
guile 3 features when building with guile 2.2; maybe that will require
flagging each test individually or maybe there is a clever way to do
that dynamically?
