Specifically, ‘-R’ (relocatable packs) does not support
cross-compilation (see guix/scripts/pack.scm if you’re curious).

If that’s an option for you, you can omit ‘-RR’ from the command line.

Anyhow, we take note that someone hit this limitation and that we now
have to do something about it.  :-)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
