Subject: bug#26544: [PATCH v4 00/10] system: Move "--load" and other guix-specific parameters from the grub module to the generic system module.

I've been testing this for quite some time now and will be pushing it in a few hours if there are no objections.

Note: If you get a guile backtrace like the following on "guix system reconfigure", you should run "make" in guix.  It will work just fine then.

Other than that, it's uneventful.

The guile that guix used is:

/gnu/store/k1bmz7glblfxdgaaas12q707lpjjk4mz-profile/bin/guile --no-auto-compile

guile 2.0.14

To reproduce, there all the ".go" files from guix, then invoke "guix system reconfigure ...".  It will fail with the above.

When you then run "make", wait until it's done, then invoke "guix system reconfigure ...", it will work.
