Could you apply this patch:
diff --git a/guix/ftp-client.scm b/guix/ftp-client.scm
index f02d460..e76f08a 100644
--- a/guix/ftp-client.scm

(catch 'system-error
(lambda ()
and then try again, with:
./pre-inst-env guix package -i autoconf
(I can provided more info on how to apply the patch if needed. See also
<http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Running-Guix-Before-It-Is-Installed.html>.)
This may be a regression introduced in 279ec1d.
TIA!
