Looking good!

I just tried to install Emacs to a dummy profile with your patch.
Here is the result (with ":" replaced by line breaks):

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then I did

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
/home/ambrevar/projects/guix/pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc emacs emacs-expand-region -- emacs -q
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And I get Emacs with expand region functions, but since GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
is still effective, it's unclear what loads it.

So it seems to be the right approach, let's keep testing!

With regard to the "cleanups" you mentioned:

> Various cleanups could be undertaken in both Guix (no longer need the

Shall we keep guix-emacs.el (and site-start.el) at all?

What guix-emacs.el does if I'm not mistaken:

- Find autoloads: Would we still need this then?  I'm not sure.  If
  not, then it would be great to remove this because finding-autoload
  linearly increases Emacs loading time.

- Find packages in GUIX_ENVIRONMENT: I suppose we don't need this since
  EMACSLOADPATH should be in the `guix environment' as well.

- Find packages in "/run/current-system/profile": The approach used by
  other programs at the moment is to do this in /etc/profile, e.g.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
export MANPATH=\
$HOME/.guix-profile/share/man\
:/run/current-system/profile/share/man
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Seems to me that we can remove guix-emacs.el and site-start.el.

Cheers!
