What exactly do you mean with "composing profiles"? This fails:

guix environment --ad-hoc python
echo $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
# /gnu/store/0d8vp2h=E2=80=A6-profile
echo $PYTHONPATH
# /gnu/store/0d8vp2h=E2=80=A6-profile/lib/python3.5/site-packages
guix environment --ad-hoc python-simplejson
echo $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
# /gnu/store/5xgfisg=E2=80=A6-profile
echo $PYTHONPATH
# /gnu/store/0d8vp2h=E2=80=A6-profile/lib/python3.5/site-packages
python3 -s -c 'import simplejson'
# import error

('-s' avoids leaking packages from =C2=A7HOME/.local/=E2=80=A6)
