Hm, no idea how we end up at 105%...

CI has so few and so underpowered ARM machines that it does not even
keep up with master; so there is no point in ticking the box.
   https://qa.guix.gnu.org/branch/master
0% on aarch64 and armhf! People who want aarch64 substitutes need to
get them from bordeaux.

We could increase the priority for the branch, but the problem lies
elsewhere. If I see it correctly, some builds spuriously failed early on,
and then tons of packages are marked "dependency failed". I do not think
these will be restarted automatically, even after I restarted a few
of them by hand.

So we are left with QA right now. I am not satisfied with the build
submission speed, but it is advancing nevertheless; as far as I can see
on data.qa, your newly pushed branch will soon finish there, and build
submissions should start again.
