No, I use pretty much default GNU GuixSD.

    No SELinux or similar.

My mount options on /tmp are:

    $ findmnt /tmp
    /tmp   tmpfs  tmpfs  rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,size=16777216k

    (file-systems (cons* ;; …
                         (file-system
                           (device "tmpfs")
                           (mount-point "/tmp")
                           (type "tmpfs")
                           (flags '(no-suid no-dev))
                           (options "mode=1777,size=16G")
                           (needed-for-boot? #t)
                           (check? #f))
                         %base-file-systems))

Yes, there is a nosuid flag.  After removing this, success to build.
/me fills stupid.

Could we have a thing which will check for such flag before running
tests in package builds?  Or tell this after 'guix system reconfigure'.
Or maybe to mention in Guix documentation if such a flag present then
you could fail to build some packages?

    $ uname -a
    Linux magnolia 4.13.4-gnu #1 SMP 1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks,
