I'm attempting to work around Bug 34426 locally, temporarily, until it is
fixed. From Björn's comment, it seemed that the inferiors feature could get
xmlsec functional again.
I attempted this to include this file in GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH:
```
;;; per https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=34426
;;; refer to older gnutls in xmlsec build and gnucash should pick it up
(define-module (my-gnucash)
#:use-module (guix inferior)
#:use-module (guix channels)
#:use-module (srfi srfi-1))
(define channels
(list (channel
(name 'guix)
(url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git")
(commit "cc2e0566be1c2fa632fc3cc4e6cf705c665aa0d2"))))
(define inferior
(inferior-for-channels channels))
(define-public gnutls-works
(first (lookup-inferior-packages inferior "gnutls")))
(define-public xmlsec
(package
(name "xmlsec")
(version "1.2.27")
(source (origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri (string-append "https://www.aleksey.com/xmlsec/download/"
"xmlsec1-" version ".tar.gz"))
(sha256
(base32
"1dlf263mvxj9n4lnhhjawc2hv45agrwjf8kxk7k8h9g9v2x5dmwp"))))
(build-system gnu-build-system)
(propagated-inputs ; according to xmlsec1.pc
`(("libxml2" ,libxml2)
("libxslt" ,libxslt)))
(inputs
`(("gnutls" ,gnutls-works)
("libgcrypt" ,libgcrypt)
("libltdl" ,libltdl)))
(native-inputs
`(("pkg-config" ,pkg-config)))
(home-page "https://www.aleksey.com/xmlsec/")
(synopsis "XML Security Library")
(description
"The XML Security Library is a C library based on Libxml2. It
supports XML security standards such as XML Signature, XML Encryption,
Canonical XML (part of Libxml2) and Exclusive Canonical XML (part of
Libxml2).")
(license (license:x11-style "file://COPYING"
"See 'COPYING' in the distribution."))))
```
I then executed a guix pull but needed to break it, due to massive RAM
usage.
```

A ps command showed things were going recursively out of hand:
