(ins)efraim <at> 3900XT ~/workspace/guix$ time torsocks ./pre-inst-env guix build --no-grafts git-annex --target=aarch64-linux-gnu
guix build: error: gnu/packages/haskell-apps.scm:345:2: git-annex <at> 8.20210903: build system `haskell' does not support cross builds

support cross compiling than to find the upstream blessed binary for one
of the GHC releases and use that as a bootstrap for later GHC releases
on aarch64.
