NOTE: `build' phase, _not_ 'configure'

This command throws INT during 'configure' on my computer

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
22:19:11 janneke <at> glimdal:~/src/guix/master 
$ timeout -s INT 2s guix build hello --no-grafts --check -K -v1
The following derivation will be built:

...from this output it seems on your computer too.  Using

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
timeout -s INT 10s guix build hello --no-grafts --check -K -v1
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

works for me, or "just" hit ^C manually.

I hope not, just the configure/build phase subtlety?
