Sure, do you mean like this?

I copied this from %bootstrap-gcc, do we want to to change this in all
bootstrap packages too?

Yes.

Ah yes, that's nice.  Hmm, there's a slight complication because for the
i686-linux version I cheated; icu4c, python-more-itertools and swig fail
to build on core-updates-next.  I added a hack and reverted that...
which is probably less than great.  So I cleaned it up a bit and just
added it.

So, now we three commits instead of this single one

Yes, this series was a prepeparation for that.  I didn't want to store

it would be nice to store them under /guix and I would prefer that I
didn't build them -- or at least that you (someone) reproduced them.
