In both cases, Coreutils fails to build.

Did ‘make check’ in Guix pass in the first place?  Is the daemon running
as noted at:

  http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Setting-Up-the-Daemon

Besides, note that if you want, you can instruct Guix to use pre-built
binaries (when possible) by following the instructions at:

HTH,
