Hi Stefan,

I just want to say that I'm not ignoring the question--I honesty don't know.

In any case, until we do know, I've applied your patch
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/45225#7  to guix master as commit
b57056a9fd83c61efb5343853948a798da6e975e--after all, the font was in /boot
for regular Guix Systems anyway, so I don't see a downside loading it from
/boot--especially since it's part of the bootloader anyway, which does not
have different generations for itself.  Also, the code is simpler now.

I also want to note that all 4 hunks in that patch had failed to apply with
git am.  I implore you to please download the patch files from
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/45225#7 using the little blue download arrow
are the top right corner and try to "git am" them yourself.  It won't work
because the spaces in your patch files are mangled.

If it's that way because git send-email doesn't work, I have a block like the
following in ~/.gitconfig--and my patches arrive unmangled that way:

[sendemail]
        from = Example User <user@example.com>
        smtpEncryption = tls
        smtpServer = xxx
        smtpUser = xxx
        smtpPass = xxx
        smtpServerPort = 587

Then you can use

  git format-patch -1 -o ../outgoing-topic1
  git send-email ../outgoing-topic1/0001*

and it will work.
