I'm operating under the assumption that when using the --target flag
packages aren't substituteable (since cross-compiling a package will
likely not yield the same result as natively compiling it) in which
case the --target flag would only be useful for either bootstrapping
or optimizing guixsd for an embedded system or something like that.
