On a GNU/Linux amd64 qemu image:
================================

git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
cd guix
autoreconf -ivf
./configure --prefix=/usr 2>&1 | tee ../configure.log
make 2>&1 | tee ../make-guix.log

I used the attached patches to build the bootstrap tarballs with command:
Terminal 1: <as root>
export GUILE_LOAD_PATH=/usr/share/guile/site/2.2/
./pre-inst-env ./guix-daemon --debug --build-users-group=guixbuild

Terminal 2:
export GUILE_LOAD_PATH=/usr/share/guile/site/2.2/
./pre-inst-env guix build --target=i586-pc-gnu bootstrap-tarballs 2>&1 | tee
../bootstrap-tarballs-i586-pc-gnu.log

Build took around two days, and the log file is 361MB.

Note: --target=i586-gnu does not work!

apt-get install guile-2.2 guile-gcrypt libgnutls30 guile-sqlite3 guile-json
guile-bytestructures make zlib1g bzip2 libgcrypt20 sqlite3 g++ guile-2.0 guile-
2.0-libs guile-2.2-dev libsqlite3-dev guile-ssh libgit2-27 libgit2-dev texinfo
texlive-base help2man

guile-json is too old: Install 3.1.0-1.
apt-get install -t experimental guile-json

guile-git was built from git and guile-gnutls was built from a modified version
of gnutls28-3.6.9-5.

However, for the dependencies I needed guile-2.2 to be installed:
apt-get remove --purge guile-2.2
guile-2.2* guile-bytestructures* guile-gcrypt* guile-gnutls* guile-json* guile-
sqlite3* guile-ssh*

dpkg -S /usr/share/guile/site/
guile-sqlite3, guile-gcrypt, guile-bytestructures, guile-ssh, guile-gnutls,
guile-json: /usr/share/guile/site

dpkg -S /usr/share/guile/site/2.2
guile-sqlite3, guile-gcrypt, guile-bytestructures, guile-ssh, guile-json:
/usr/share/guile/site/2.2

On the Hurd box:
================
The cross-built files xz and guile are corrupt (maybe tar too):
/gnu/store/...-xz: Error creating a pipe: Function not implemented

On the Linux box:
=================
Extracting and running guile from guile-static-stripped-2.0.14-i586-pc-
gnu.tar.xz
./bin/guile --version
Throw without catch before boot:
Aborting.

Where did things go wrong or where did I miss something?

Thanks!
