Indeed, this prints
;;; ("2.0.5-deb+1-3")

My report may have been wrong, as it appears that I did not correctly 
install the newest guix version. Anyway, with 
git-911b1b9cb693b59c4001899f144d77c3437c12fe I now cannot download any 
more:

$ git build intltool

The file itself can be downloaded without problem with wget.

After applying your patch, the progress report is indeed suppressed, but 
the download problem persists.
