'libgme' appears to keep a reference to 'gcc':

$ guix size libgme 
store item                          total    self
/gnu/store/rn75fm7adgx3pw5j8pg3bczfqq1y17lk-gcc-7.5.0              178.5   107.3  59.1%    <--- this should not be here

total: 181.6 MiB

Thus adding it to ffmpeg would increase the closure size of ffmpeg by
more than 100MiB (compare 'guix size ffmpeg' and
'guix size libgme ffmpeg').

We should sort out that GCC reference first.
