If you tried this with a recent Guix, you probably got a segfault.  I
finally found that compiling with -flto (--enable-lto) creates broken
DLLs with binutils > 2.35.2.  This is "fixed" by using --disable-lto
when compiling for mingw.

So, also with a recent Guix, this should work:

WINEPATH=$(guix shell wine64 -- winepath -w                                    \
   $(echo $(guix gc -R                                                         \
                 $(GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=guix guix build                           \
                                    --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32 guile-mingw))) \
              | sed 's,$,/bin,g' | tr '\n' ';')                                \
       guix shell wine64 -- wine                                               \
       $(GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=guix guix build --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32         \
                          guile-mingw)/bin/guile.exe                           \
       -c '(format #t "Hello ~a world!\n" %host-type)'

Greetings,
