TBC: what is this package packaging?

  * the compiler
  * some wrapper around the compiler
  * the standard library and the compiler
  * both

If it packages the compiler, this is not fine.  Guix is a package
manager and distribution, the point of which is to automatically sort
out dependencies.  Leaving it up to the user to sort out the
dependencies then partially defeats the point.
