That failed immediately.  The reason is that apparently GNUnet's test
suite only works if GNUnet has already been installed.  In this case,
since the build failed, the guix-daemon deleted the /nix/store/*
directory where it had been installed :-(

I think it's going to hard to reproduce the build environment outside of
guix-daemon.  I think it would be better to try a modified recipe that
only runs a subset of the tests.
