Quick update, this works well:

#+begin_src scheme :noeval
(use-modules (gnu packages guile-xyz)
	     (guix gexp))

(define foo
  (computed-file
   "foo"
   (with-imported-modules '((guix build utils))
     (with-extensions (list guile-ini guile-smc guile-lib)
       #~(begin
           (use-modules (guix build utils)
			(ice-9 pretty-print)
			(ini)
			(smc core log))
	   (mkdir-p "/tmp")
	   (smc-log-init! "file" `((file . "/tmp/test")))
	   (call-with-output-file #$output
	     (lambda (output)
	       (pretty-print
		(call-with-input-file #$(local-file "/tmp/config.ini")
		  ini->scm)
		output))))))))

foo
#+end_src

Now, that was just a stripped down version of what I need to do though!

The real gexp uses =(open-pipe* OPEN_READ command ...)= instead, where
=command= is a script that calls guile-ini (and therefore guile-smc, and
therefore the logger). I can't use =smc-log-init!= the same way
then... I'll keep you posted if something comes to mind.
