Using the same commit you were using last,
652a03888e1609bd1a687326760436867fe2abb7, I can obtain the same Emacs
(same store hash):

$ guix time-machine --commit=652a03888e1609bd1a687326760436867fe2abb7 -- environment --ad-hoc emacs
[env]$ which emacs
/gnu/store/gbzd8hc6360vaxmk2xh5bzkx7dkkwl8q-profile/bin/emacs

Have you tried it in a container, like so:

$ guix time-machine --commit=652a03888e1609bd1a687326760436867fe2abb7 \
  -- environment -C --ad-hoc emacs -- emacs --version

to ensure there are no contaminants from your host.

Perhaps NixOS, being similar to Guix, is somehow interfering?
