Oh, right.  I forgot about ad-hoc environments and =E2=80=9Cguix environm=
ent
-l=E2=80=9D.

I=E2=80=99m mostly using =E2=80=9Cguix environment=E2=80=9D with a single=
 package name, and for
that purpose it would be nice if I could make the shell prompt indicate
for what package this environment was created.  I guess =E2=80=9Ct=E2=80=9D=
 as a value
for =E2=80=9CGUIX_ENVIRONMENT=E2=80=9D will have to do then.
