Dear guix,

Meson needs to be wrapped, but the wrapping must not execute a new
process, if I understand correctly. I could use wrap-script, but I think
it’s more pythonic to set the path through sys.path rather than setting
an environment variable.

Now, this will create a world rebuild… What do you think?
