Great, thanks.

My next ugly hand-cranked fix:

$ ln -s /lib64/libnss_vas4.so.2
/home/myuser/.local/opt/guix/guix/store/llnj407l7gh3mz4jjsj6ymc6ph2a7hg6-glibc-2.21/lib/libnss_vas4.so.2

As nss plugins are a system-specific configuration and
sysadmin-installed, I guess it could be argued that glibc *should*
look in the system paths for them. On the other hand, there's no
guarantee the stuff there will work for guix's glibc. In my case,
luckily it did, and coreutils could pass its tests.
