Yes, something like that: the function needs to be present at in the
builder, but I'm not sure how we can make that so.  I tried several
things but could not find a way to avoid this duplication.
mingw-target? is passed the TARGET from the post-install-phase.

How would that work?  mingw-target? uses %current-build-system which is
defined in (guix utils).  I agree that it would be nice to remove this
duplication.

The definition from (guix utils) is used in libiconv-if-needed, in
cross-gcc, in guile and in readline.

Greetings,
Jan
