Hi Valter,

I started looking at this as it had passed QA, although while it
arguably hadn't made the situation worse, the package looks to have been
failing to build before, and it was still failing to build with these
changes.

guix lint also was reporting a load of new issues:

I've now gone through and fixed all these, the "invalid build clause" as
mentioned by guix lint was what was causing the package to fail to
build. Luckily, I also saw the patch posted to #65515, so I've merged
those changes in here.

Other small tweaks I made include using with-directory-excursion in the
arguments, and removing gawk as a native-input (I think the build system
provides gawk).

I've pushed this to master as 10bc07671e2a3a699d4f56e405f50d766323319a.
