It is impossible to cross-compile waypipe on master, because
meson-build-system does not support cross-compilation (on master).

# replace 'glib' with 'waypipe'
$ LC_ALL=C guix build glib --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf
guix build: error: gnu/packages/glib.scm:425:2: glib <at> 2.62.6: build system `meson' does not support cross builds

What branch are you on?

Also, what arguments did you pass to "guix build"?
You need --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf for cross-compilation,
not --system=armhf-linux.  The latter is for offloading to an armhf
machine or a QEMU emulated build.

Greetings,
Maxime.
