Hey,

Ok!

Well turns out that gexp->file takes #f as default target (as
gexp->script and lower-object).

Using %current-target-system as default target argument (as gexp->sexp)
makes those two patches useless.

Would you have any objection to use %current-target-system as default
target argument in gexp->file and lower-object?

Thanks,

Mathieu
