Having now looked at the code, I see that it does not.
My latest upgrade implemention assumed that it did, so I'll have to fix
that. Please hold off on reviewing the current patch. Another is now
in the works.

For now, I'm going to assume that "guix-package -i guile" indeed
*should* choose from among the newest available versions, so I'm going
to work on fixing that.
Please let me know if you disagree.
