I ran 'make distcheck', which initially failed with a
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
'dot' error: Format: "pdf" not recognized. Use one of: canon cmap cmapx cmapx_np
dot dot_json eps fig gd gd2 gif gv imap imap_np ismap jpe
jpeg jpg json json0 mp pic plain plain-ext png pov ps ps2

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
error. I needed to use the full graphviz, not 'graphviz-minimal' as
used by the Guix package.
I also had to add imagemagick for the 'convert' command. After that it
proceeded normally; it failed finding many missing substitutes but
otherwise 'make distcheck' went fine.
Pushed, at last. Some related commits to the above will appear to
guix-patches soon.
