Which crt are these? crt1.o, crti.o, crtn.o (from glibc) or crtbegin.o,
crtend.o, crtprec64.o, ... (from gcc)?

FWIW, the <c-compiler> infrastructure in (guix scripts pack) does that,
and the code in guix/self.scm has a comment:

    ;; XXX: Reuse <c-compiler> from (guix scripts pack) instead?

though maybe (guix scripts pack) has the same reference-keeping problem

Maxime.
