I reverted this because it triggered over 1330 rebuilds, and as far as I
can tell there is nothing particularly urgent or compelling in this
update.  Therefore, I think it belongs in core-updates or some other
branch.  Does that make sense?

     Thanks,
       Mark

Good question. I pushed it at a time where none of our build slaves was doing
any work and thought it was a good way of occupying them. "guix refresh -l"
showed only 250 rebuilds, which, multiplied by 3 architectures, would have
given 750. It would be nice if "guix refresh -l" could be made to determine
the correct number.

Could we agree on a formal guideline of what can go into master and what
needs to go into core-updates? So far, the only official reason to use
core-updates was when touching base packages.

Should we add some limit of rebuilds? "guix refresh -l" shows less than
100 packages or so? (Then one can still use common sense depending on
the charge on hydra to renounce at a commit at a bad moment.)
