Great, thanks for the report!  Based on this, I went ahead and pushed a
slightly improved patch, commit bc91562939ee002e84c95d13c907482b6d1e9339
on the master branch.

Joshua and Bradley: you should be able to simply "guix pull" and then
update your IceCat package, and hopefully the problem will be fixed.
Please let us know.

     Thanks!
       Mark
