I've suggested this before and this seems like a good time to bring it up 
again: can we create a database of known "bad" Guix commit hashes, and make 
time-machine fetch the list and warn before it'll visit one of those hashes? 
This would resolve the land-mine problem and generally de-risk our git tree, 
which is maintained by fallible volunteers who will occasionally push tragic 
commits.
