I concur.

A test failure, unless it is caused by things such as “requiring
network access” or is expected due to guix specifics should be
considered a problem with the package. (if tests are disabled simply
because they happen to fail without doing any investigation, why have
tests at all?)

I'd report this upstream first, it can be the case that the error
(which is being flagged by the compiler) is unmasking a real bug
upstream.

Furthermore, I consider that nonfree software must be eradicated.
