Indeed, we should fix it.

Yes. That’s because the record ‘libjpeg-8d’ “inherits” from the other
one, so it takes its ‘location’ field unchanged. Currently you have to
explicitly add the ‘location’ field when inheriting:
(location (source-properties->location (current-source-location)))
That’s inconvenient though, and perhaps ‘define-record-type*’ should be
extended to support non-inheritable fields.
Thoughts?
