Trouble installing bind using home-configuration.scm/config.scm

[Lee Thompson <lee.p.thomp@gmail.com>]

I'm having trouble installing the `bind' package declaratively.  Running
`guix show bind' returns the bind package, but when I add `(gnu packages
dns)' to my home-configuration.scm and the bind package to `packages'
like so I run into an exception during reconfiguration:
> (use-modules (gnu home)
>              (gnu home services)
>              (gnu packages)
>              …
>              (gnu packages dns))
> 
> (home-environment
>   (packages (list …
>                   bind
>                   …)))
>   (services …)

After running `guix home reconfigure
~/.config/guix-config/home-configuration.scm':

It looks pretty obvious that this is having some interaction with the
standard Guile `bind' procedure.  Is this intended behaviour?  I can
imagine using `specification->package' could get around this but I
wanted to hear some other opinions.

Also while looking into this I found this section of the info manual
that talks about an `isc-bind' package I've been unable to get Guix to
find; is this a former name of the current `bind' package?  Relevant
info section:
