I have been able to reproduce the issue locally on Debian building guix
1.4.0 with some patches, mostly to disable various test suites and a few
guix-daemon security fixes).

I suspect this is not specific to how guix or gcc is packaged in Debian,
but it is possible!

I have not *yet* tested on a more recent guix based on a git snapshot.
