I can always do it by hand by changing symlinks, so it is not absolutely
necessary.
The reason I needed to do it is that I was in a situation where the daemon
was compiled with the glibc from guix and did not work. So I wanted to
uninstall glibc, but --roll-back did not work. (Maybe -r would have
worked?)
