I already have host/foreign distro's "nscd" package installed, and the
daemon was/is already running.

- Distro: Trisquel 7

- nscd version: (Ubuntu EGLIBC 2.19-0ubuntu6.14) 2.19

$ sudo service nscd status

$ LANG=C sudo netstat -lanp | grep nscd

I also made my own "/etc/nsswitch.conf" file, which is attached. The
"nscd.conf" --- also attached --- comes from the "nscd" package, and
wasn't changed by me. If I recall correctly, the only think that I made
myself was the nsswitch.conf file, in which the "hosts" entry was based
on GuixSD's related GNU Shepherd service.

I also took care to restart the Guix daemon after changing the
nsswitch.conf file, but got the same result.
