Here's what I did:

cd /tmp
guix pull --commit=8159ce1970d91567468cf1bacac313099a009d2a -p 
guix-ppc64-bootstrap
GUIX_PROFILE="/tmp/guix-ppc64-bootstrap"
. "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile"
time guix build --no-substitutes --target=powerpc64-linux-gnu bootstrap-tarballs

binutils: OK
gcc: NOK
glibc: OK
guile: OK
static-binaries: OK

Only my gcc-stripped-5.5.0-powerpc64-linux-gnu.tar.xz has a different
checksum.

Congrats to Léo and all those involved in this porting effort!

Thank you!
