Files in /gnu/store must never be modified, because the whole system
assumes it is indeed immutable.  For this reason, /gnu/store is a
read-only bind-mount on GuixSD.

The solution for Synaptics would be to augment the Xorg service
definition in (gnu services xorg) so that it does the right thing.
What exactly is needed?
