Thanks a lot for these patches!  Today I tried to run the guix-daemon
with it on our cluster.  It works fine, except for the following (which
might be unrelated):

[root <at> hpcguix ~]$ /gnu/repositories/guix/guix-daemon --listen=/gnu/daemon-socket/socket --listen=<ip-address>:<port> ...

[roel <at> submit-node1 ~]$ guixr package -i samtools
The following package will be installed:
   samtools    1.3.1    /gnu/store/syl74az7a5mw5f8r5jfldiddlyc3ry28-samtools-1.3.1

substitute: error: executing `/usr/local/libexec/guix/substitute': No such file or directory
guix package: error: build failed: substituter `substitute' died unexpectedly


When passing --no-substitutes, the command works, which means the
guix-daemon with these patches applied does what we expect.

Note that, I could've used 'guix' instead of 'guixr', but all 'guixr'
essentially does is set the GUIX_DAEMON_SOCKET and GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH
variables.

I wonder where this /usr/local/libexec comes from, and how/where I can
configure it so that it works the same as before.

Thanks again for these patches.

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
