I think I might have found the issue. The following commit made the
existence/absence 'kmod' input of pciutils depend on %current-
system/%current-target-system:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=22ee7209797c023b95e22ced156df62cbff90184

but it forgot to keep in mind that nix systems != triplets.
Instead of %current-target-system, the 'current-target-nix-system'
from ‘https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49672#3’ needs to be used
(or the hurd-target? procedure).

Greetings,
Maxime.
