Hi,

Normally you should be able to get substitutes, making ‘guix pull’
actually usable on these platforms.  But I’m not sure what the status is
on armhf-linux.  This platform needs love!

I addressed this one differently to avoid rebuilding the 600+ packages
that depends on nss-certs.

I added a comment explaining why this flag is needed and committed.

Should we close this issue now?

Thanks!
