Okay!

I made the commit title into a complete sentence and pushed.

I took ng0's advice about the comment styles:

https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Comments.html

I also made the phases 'set-env', 'set-lua-version', 'skip-test-gtk',
and 'start-xserver-instance' return #t. We want successful phases to
return #t, but things like setenv and substitute* do not specify a
return value, so we explicity return #t.

I moved #:make-flags to the top of the arguments block, which kept
it shorter than 80 columns. And I corrected the indentation of
#:phases by one column.

Pushed!

The commit message only needs to refer to the (awesome) variable once in
this case.  Referring to the fields [inputs] and [arguments] later does
not require the variable to be mentioned again. Fixed before pushing.

I sorted the new inputs alphabetically, since the pre-existing inputs
were already sorted. I made the comment about loading Cairo dynamically
into a complete sentence. I made the phase 'set-lua-paths' return #t.

Finally, since the new 'wrap' phase had a too-long line that was ugly to
break up, I shifted the indentation of #:phases down one line and to the
left, giving some more room to breathe on the right.
