Actually with a recent change (a few months?) to Guix, I believe it's
now necessary to run 'guix pull' to get newly authorized keys; I'm not
sure in what commit though.

Could someone confirm or infirm that?  With the link to the actual
change as a bonus, if you have that!  If confirmed, we should probably
extend our contributing doc to document this new gotcha.
