Thank you!

This is the default, so it's okay to leave it out.

I noticed that it doesn't keep references to glib and gtk+:

------
$  guix gc --references $(./pre-inst-env guix build --no-grafts bochs)
/gnu/store/2dk55i5wdhcbh2z8hhn3r55x4873iyp1-libxext-1.3.3

/gnu/store/xrvwszmahcb7k2zcyag3vmqwswzrbvcg-libxrender-0.9.10
------

So, I think it's possible to omit those two inputs.

I checked some of the source files and I think it is lgpl2.0+.

Can you send an updated patch? :)
