This is fixed in 'core-updates' branch now:
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=9e01589469abd89e035450d29026f0e14add6801>,
however since the fix is not available for users (until core-updates
will be merged into master) I think it's better to leave this bug
opened.

Once the fix appears in 'master' (I will let you know when it happens),
a user could do "guix pull" and install (or update) 'gettext' in his/her
profile.  Then 'po-mode' will become available by default (without any
additional settings in user's .emacs), it means that whenever you will
open .po file, 'po-mode' will be loaded and enabled automatically.
