I get with HTTPS:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Starting download of /tmp/guix-file.hccu6E
>From https://ftp.midnight-commander.org/mc-4.8.27.tar.xz...
X.509 server certificate for 'ftp.midnight-commander.org' does not match: C=US,postalCode=97331,ST=Oregon,L=Corvallis,street=121 Valley Library,O=Oregon State University,OU=CASS,CN=*.osuosl.org
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Maybe, is it fixable?

All the best,
