AFAIK (G_ ...) cannot be used from within a G-exp.
However, you could do:

     #~(begin
          ...
          (format #t #$(G_ "Starting services...~%")))

but that would make "shepherd.conf" depend on the locale
that was active when "guix home ..." (*) was run,
which may or may not be acceptable.

(*) not sure what the exact command is.

Alternatively, it might be possible to build the .mo from the .po
translations and use bindtextdomain from the G-exp, in which case
the G_ should be usable from the G-exp.
