Oops,

guix time-machine --disable-authentication -- describe

fails with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Backtrace:

But

guix time-machine --commit=bccfcef4 -- time-machine --disable-authentication -- describe

works fine.

Probably, I forgot to remove a workaround, when I was testing
b1fc98d6b063a117fe2bcc19a60c8b9a48301593.
