+declaration by specifying the @code{build-machines} field of
+@code{guix-configuration}.  When you do this, @command{guix system} generates
+a @file{/etc/guix/machines.scm} file by concatenating the @code{(build-machine
+@dots{})} expressions you specified.
+
+This mechanism is used by @code{hurd-vm-service-type}, also known as
+``childhurd'', to create virtual machines running the GNU/Hurd operating
+system one can offload to, without additional configuration steps.
+
+Run @command{info \"(guix) Daemon Offload Setup\"} for more info on
+offloading; run @command{info \"(guix) Virtualization Services\"} for info on
+@code{hurd-vm-service-type}.")

+@command{guix system} produit un fichier @file{/etc/guix/machines.scm} en
+concaténant les expressions @code{(build-machine @dots{})} fournies.
+
+Ce mécanisme est utilisé par @code{hurd-vm-service-type}, également appelé
+« childhurd », pour créer des machines virtuelles faisant tourner le système
+d'exploitation GNU/Hurd vers lesquelles se décharger, sans étape
