The reason I want to be it in a Guix package collection is StumpWM
release version (not a release candidate) was published 1 year ago and
since this date there are 250 commits in master branch.

I was using StumpWM builded manually with Quicklisp, but then I switched
to Guix package, because I don't want to build StumpWM manually, but I
found that StumpWM command ‘toggle-always-on-top’ is missing and StumpWM
contrib modules failed to build.

It's a fast dirty solution to have StumpWM from Guix and StumpWM contrib
modules with some dependencies builded with Quicklisp.  :-)  E.g.:

~/.stumpwm.d/init.lisp
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(load "~/quicklisp/setup.lisp")

(set-module-dir "~/.stumpwm.d/modules/")

(ql:quickload "clx-truetype")
(load-module "ttf-fonts")
(xft:cache-fonts)
(set-font (make-instance 'xft:font
                         :family "DejaVu Sans Mono"
                         :subfamily "Book"
                         :size 14))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The best solution is to package all StumpWM contrib modules as separate
recipes, but I'm not sure how do it right now because for example
‘sbcl-winner-mode’ package recipe complains about STUMPWM not found.
