You shouldn=E2=80=99t set this one.  If you=E2=80=99re concerned about GCC =
not finding
libraries you should use LIBRARY_PATH, not LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

When installing gcc-toolchain, however, CPATH and LIBRARY_PATH should be
set automatically.

Generally, the search path variables are set automatically when an
installed package declares a search path.

GUIX_LOCPATH, SSL_CERT_DIR, SSL_CERT_FILE, and GIT_SSL_CAINFO are not
search paths and are thus not set automatically.
