This will break all those emacs, python, etc. packages that have
"emacs-", "python-" prefixes in the package-name, but not in their
source file names. We'll have to add the file-name field to practically
every Guix package. I'm not sure this is a good idea.

Couldn't we drop patch 3, and just use patch 4 to fix this bug?
