./configure fails when building Guix

[HiPhish <hiphish@posteo.de>]

Hello everyone,

I am trying to set up Guix for proper local development, but it fails during 
the configuration step because the script cannot find the guild binary. Here is 
what I did:

- Check out the Guix repo
- Switch to a local branch
- run `guix environment guix` in order to set up all dependiencies
- run `./bootstrap`
- run `./configure`

Here is the output of `./bootstrap`:

guix$ ./bootstrap

+ sed -e s,guix-manual\.,,
+ xargs -n 1 -I{} basename {} .po

And here is the output of `./configure`:

The guild binary is available, the output of `which guild` is

I am running Guix on a foreign distro (Kubuntu 18.10) if that matters.
