bug#51259: Cannot build Guix from source (error messages about the translations)

[Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli]

Hi,

I'm on i686, and I've tried all the approaches mentioned:
- export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8
- rm doc/contributing.*.texi
- the patch in doc/local.mk

on top of the following commit:
19d3cfec72 gnu: python-arrow: Move python-pytz to native-inputs.

I tried building Guix with both:
- guix environment guix -C guix
- guix environment --pure guix

And for building I use
export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8
rm -f doc/contributing.*.texi && \
./bootstrap && \
./configure --localstatedir=/var && \
make clean && \
make -j2

And that gives the following compilation error (with guix environment
guix -C guix):

I'll then try 'make make-go' instead in order to be able to test
patches before sending them.
