I think I must have made some mistake before — it works for me now and I
just pushed it to master and core-updates.

I did a quick test with the package 'lash' and lash does refer to the
grafted dbus:

$ ./pre-inst-env guix build dbus --no-grafts                        
/gnu/store/bmlkg9mbqj1k0y7kdq2rdll42aicglyk-dbus-1.10.8
$ ./pre-inst-env guix build dbus            
/gnu/store/j8zrqkcdp849q391hj9wrbz3a98zs128-dbus-1.10.8
$ guix gc --references $(./pre-inst-env guix build lash) | grep dbus
/gnu/store/j8zrqkcdp849q391hj9wrbz3a98zs128-dbus-1.10.8
