As said, I disagree with this change pushed by
01361d46b8e0481ad56665d7a06c276b08f59c6d.

Could you revert?  Because as explained by…

…the option ’-CPW’ is not a solution.  Other said, it would require in
addition ’-N’.

To me, this recommendation of container is like a bazooka for chasing
the real bug: about why --pure does not clean all as expected.  Or why
“guile” is found elsewhere?
