I'd suggest using an operating system with a stable release cycle and which is tested on x86. There are many problems introduced by upstream developers for x86 as for the most part developers only test on x86_64. Even using source based distributions over the past few years has become rather difficult at times due to this reason. Guix is rolling release and NixOS is not tested on multiple platforms, so even if you were able to get your system compiled there is a fairly reasonable chance that your system would not work as intended.
