Ah, now I see what you mean, thanks! And emacs can be started with
"--no-site-file" so my concerns about avoiding this are fulfilled. For
simplicity, we can even add "site-start.el" to the guix repo I think.

Yes, it meant to be used with the patch.
So IIUC we need the following patches to make our Emacs find packages in
a user profile:
- patch for stripping "guix-emacs.el" from extra dependencies (attached
to the previous message);
- patch for adding "site-start.el" (attached to this message);
- modified version of your patch to copy "site-start.el" and
"guix-emacs.el" to the proper places.
