Duh, my bad, sorry I was probably too distracted with other things at
Guix Days, I completely missed that the world obviously had to be rebuilt.
I guess I'm not used to dealing with core-updates :p

Actually, this brings up a genuine question: how do you test core-updates
for these type of changes?  Do we really have a rebuild the whole thing on
every iteration?

Cheers, and sorry for the mishaps!
