Thanks for looking at it. This is my first guix patch, so please be
gentle. I do maintain elfutils upstream, so I did have a little
advantage picking some upstream patches which hadn't gone into the
release yet.

Good you mention the licenses. I forgot to update them licenses. 0.178
introduces some new documentation (man pages), one of them is under
the GFDL (without invariant sections).

Also I am not sure how precisely we should mention the dual
gplv2+/lgplv3+ license for the "out" output libraries and the gplv3+
license for the "bin" output (and where the gfdl should be added).

Thanks,

Mark
