If you create an installer with todays Guix, 'guix system init' will
fail because it tries to build the broken 1.1.0-15. Running 'guix pull'
inside the constrained installation environment is not a great solution,
particularly if substitutes are unavailable, so I created a new snapshot
in 6680880f9b8dceb4f2f3f91bd2b13c659b53835e.
(I had already encountered this today when reinstalling a machine.)
