Subject: bug#57589: Guix hands on GDM with wayland

Figured out what was the problem. The /tmp dir. Once I had nonexisting /mnt
dir on Guix boot. So I've added this piece In my file-systems:

(file-system
  (mount-point "/tmp")
  (device "tmp")
  (type "tmpfs")
  (check? #f))

This exact piece was causing a problem. Seems like it's connected to
x11-socket-directory-service from (gnu services desktop). So, maybe the
tmpdir was mounted after GDM boot and override the needed /tmp settings.
