It probably uses /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 or the like which does not
exist on Guix.  What is the interpreter according to "readelf -l
silent-python"? (look for ‘Requesting program interpreter: ’ in the
output).  What does 'stat THE-INTERPRETER’ say?

'ldd' is not perfect.  As an additional test, could be to do "strace
./silent-python", maybe it tells you which file could not be found.
