This is perfect (see commit 7e4bc215098f334bc2a11737f2665dd4992fc2da,
which gave you this, fixing the issue we’re talking about on GuixSD.)

So I don’t think this machine has any problem.  Perhaps nss-certs was
installed before the fix above?

No, there are actually newlines, try:

  cat /proc/270/environ | xargs -0 echo

HTH,
