It seems to work fine: now texdoc does find all documentation in the various
items in GUIX_TEXMF. So there seems to be no need for a texdoc bug report
anymore, thanks! 

The only subtlety is that any call to guix shell with extra texlive packages
should also include texlive-bin (directly or not) so that the proper hooks are
called, otherwise GUIX_TEXMF is not updated. This goes beyond the point of
documentation, of course.
