Ha, you're right:

[Wed Oct 20 12:46:30 2021] Out of memory: Killed process 31394 (cc1plus)

which, in turn, surprises me, since I have 32GB of RAM. (And I thought
already I bought too much, ugh :)
BTW jpoiret advised me to use swap [1]. IMO swap should be present in the
default OS configuration, since recompilation happens by default, like 2 or
3 times out of 5 times I do `guix upgrade`.
Anyway thanks for the bug analysis.

Kind regards

Bost
