bug#35691: remote configure failure due to bad pathnames for crt*.o

["Nelson H. F. Beebe" <beebe@math.utah.edu>]

OK, I've made this change to /etc/config.scm

;; Old clause from GUIX 1.0 installation
;;  (packages
;;    (list (specification->package "nss-certs")))
;; New clause suggested in e-mail from Ludo Cortes Wed, 15 May 2019 18:29:06 +0200
  (packages (append (list (specification->package "nss-certs"))
                    %base-packages))

and then ran

	% guix remove gccgo gcc-objc gcc-objc++ gcc-bootstrap
	% guix package --list-installed | grep gcc
	gcc-toolchain   9.1.0   out     /gnu/store/aqv6njg05w2yqh8krgrjy0wcbfxb4nn3-gcc-toolchain-9.1.0

	% sudo -s
	# guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
	# reboot	

Even after that major update, and reboot, I still find that, from a
remote ssh connection, configure fails to find a C compiler, because
of the faulty construction of the path to crt1.o.

Can you folks reproduce that behavior at your end with the simple test
bundle that I put up at
