Hi Luis,
Pushed to master! Some comments still follow.

You are correct, but in order to cleanly cross compile, we'd need to:
- add guile to both inputs (for the shebang) and native-inputs (for
cross compilation)
- add all guile libraries to both propagated-inputs and native-inputs
- ensure all guile libraries we depend on can be cross compiled.
- rework the `(getenv ...)' trick again, to be constructed out of the
guile libraries in (propagated-)inputs, instead of the native-inputs.
A quick bit of research makes me think guix is one of few packages
written in guile using autotools that supports cross compilation. I
think we can just leave the entire cross-compilation thing to be done
later, and then have it be done properly for all guile packages at once.
