Also, unless there's a bug, guix does not replace the etc/ld.so.cache in the store item of the installed package by a symlink -- store items can (normally) not be modified after the fact. However, ~/.guix-profile/etc/ld.so.cache _is_ a symlink to some ld.so.cache of some arbitrary package in the profile. This seems harmles to me, though pointless, perhaps the profile building code should be modified to ignore etc/ld.so.cache?
