This sounds like a bug.  Especially if it is order dependent if it works
or not.  And I can confirm that I can reproduce it on my end as well.

It should work to have both in the same context.  Probably some issue
with how they are package up — I haven't checked the packaging for them.
But I have built gcc from source with both g++ and gfortran without any
issues.  That was gcc-9 and gcc-11 so maybe something broke in upstream
with gcc-14?  Although I find that unlikely.

Anyway, best is to send in a bug report to guix now that you have a
small reproducible test that show case the issue.
