Seems to work as one would expect.  My Guix checkout is in /home/wolf/src/guix,
those in /tmp are worktrees.  I pressed C-c C-z in each of these files, a new
REPL was spawned for each of them.  After that I evaluated the snippet to verify
the paths.

/home/wolf/src/guix/gnu/packages/linux.scm:

    (values (car %load-path) (car %load-compiled-path))
    $8 = "/home/wolf/src/guix"
    $9 = "/home/wolf/src/guix"

/tmp/guix-a/gnu/packages/linux.scm:

    (values (car %load-path) (car %load-compiled-path))
    $5 = "/tmp/guix-a"
    $6 = "/tmp/guix-a"

/tmp/guix-b/gnu/packages/linux.scm:

    (values (car %load-path) (car %load-compiled-path))
    $5 = "/tmp/guix-b"
    $6 = "/tmp/guix-b"

C-c C-z in /tmp/guix-b/gnu/packages/abduco.scm reused the already running REPL
for the guix-b.

There are only two hard things in Computer Science:
cache invalidation, naming things and off-by-one errors.
