I just stumbled upon it will looking at the cargo build system
https://github.com/guix-mirror/guix/blob/master/guix/build-system/cargo.scm#L107
but you pass it just like an other build system argument. ie 

(define-public rust-afl
   ....
    (arguments
      `(#:skip-build?
        #t
        #:cargo-inputs
        (("rust-cc" ,rust-cc)
         ("rust-clap" ,rust-clap)
         ("rust-rustc-version" ,rust-rustc-version)
         ("rust-xdg" ,rust-xdg))))
    ....
