This makes sense, but the scripts will still refer to the guile used to
build the package, so building for a different architecture won't work
right? Does the package somehow need to take as input two Guiles, one

I can't quite remember, I think I added that a long while ago when
trying to get the Guix service working. I'm not sure it's a great
approach. I'll add XXX to the comment though.
