Thanks for this! I had assumed that the "guix lint" would tell me about
something like that, given the check "inputs-should-be-native".

Is it possible for those references to be "wrong"? For there to be
something which is required at runtime, but doesn't show up in a "guix gc
--references" check?

The lua files (in lib/) don't have a license heading beyond a copyright
year/author in the luadoc tags. Everything which has a license heading
seems to be gpl2+ (I had missed the "or later" text, but I've updated it
now).
