We now provide a ‘gnu-store.mount’ systemd service that makes /gnu/store read-only, as on Guix System. I suppose it wasn’t enabled on this machine, right?

Not 100% sure, but my theory is that it’s a cache created by Fontconfig and its friends. That can happen when running a Guix application as root. It’s in fact a relatively frequent problem and the reason why Guix and before that NixOS made the store read-only. HTH! Ludo’.
