‘collect2: fatal error: ld terminated with signal 9 [Killed]’

this could indicate an out-of-memory situation, which Guix cannot
really do anything about.   If it is a OOM, the dmesg should contain a
message about it (I don't know exactly how it looks like).  A future
OOM can be avoided by closing some memory intensive applications (e.g.
most web browsers) and reducing the number of cores used for building:
"guix pull --cores=2 --max-jobs=1".

In principle, it could be something else though.  Can you reproduce
with "guix pull --cores=2 --max-jobs=1"?

Also, I'm noticing you are building everything from source.
To avoid having to build things (and hence reduce the chance of
an OOM) (and save energy), I recommend enabling and authorising
substitutes.

Greetings,
Maxime.
