Indeed, there’s a bug. :-/ With your patch, I get: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ git describe v0.11.0-970-g8d4169a $ guix gc --references $(./pre-inst-env guix build msmtp)|grep gnutls /gnu/store/yrl3c1mxqwcpppyh0sjlwn3sj2w5qj54-gnutls-3.5.2 $ ./pre-inst-env guix build gnutls /gnu/store/4x9r7rkinycxr7xda5a92knm8ikila6p-gnutls-3.5.2-debug /gnu/store/n93gb4n301rz46k9cm0d12hb26gq5lg5-gnutls-3.5.2-doc /gnu/store/di3yhn5hy4hzshpazkc6dkb4r67dbhks-gnutls-3.5.2 $ ./pre-inst-env guix build gnutls --no-grafts /gnu/store/23vx0mdw6q96pakyps2cjjvcjng1mxqx-gnutls-3.5.2-debug /gnu/store/p0zrk9424l0aljzsqyqx5zgh86x9glmi-gnutls-3.5.2-doc /gnu/store/1qv5i6rfxjc4d0rg7z6r9dapmf85kzmy-gnutls-3.5.2 $ /gnu/store/yrl3c1mxqwcpppyh0sjlwn3sj2w5qj54-gnutls-3.5.2/bin/gnutls-cli --version gnutls-cli 3.5.2 Copyright (C) 2000-2016 Free Software Foundation, and others, all rights reserved.

I think the bug has to do with the fact that GnuTLS has a replacement and at the same time needs to be grafted (the libidn and libgcrypt grafts apply to GnuTLS). In the meantime, I suggest that you apply the patch anyway. Ludo’.
