One quick visual way to screen for big new groups of failed packages is
to compare the dashboards, e.g.:

https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/262363/dashboard vs https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/262877/dashboard

(this is for x86_64-linux).  You can see in this case they look pretty
identical to the eye.

It seems to be that most failures were already there on master (some
caused by the recent PyYAML update).  I've fixed some on my branch,
which may explain why the total succeeded builds is higher than master
(76% vs 67%, as seen in the "Jobs" column at https://ci.guix.gnu.org/).

I've applied these two patches and pushed to the branch; thank you!

Maxim
