Please move the ‘use-modules’ form to the top level (non-top-level
‘use-modules’ works pretty much by chance).

So these two tarballs were made from this commit, minus the
bootstrap.scm changes?

It would be nice to maybe make this a separate commit (following the
make-bootstrap.scm changes) so that you can state in the commit log
which commit was used to build this binary.

Besides we can consider hosting these binaries on ftp.gnu.org, under
/mes or /guix.

Indeed ‘commencement’ should never be used by other package modules, for
reasons having to do with circularity.

Otherwise LGTM!
