Does it still not start? As of (guix) commit
f98e3adcd533a4a4c5482343a26d01076e946f92 I at least can start a repl
without a crash.

That's also a good question.  I would prefer to use the existing
guix-patches.  Is that ok by the standard mailing list administrators?

As to the patch, I would like to apply it.  Is Guix System still the
preferred name? I thought another renaming took place.  I am possibly
very out of date on that info though.

Best regards,

John
