Looking at the definition of wrap-program in (guix build utils) there is
code that checks if the wrapper already exists; if it does it should
append the new environment variable definitions to the existing
wrapper.  It looks like this doesn’t work reliably.

If someone could figure out why that is we could fix this in the next
core-updates cycle.
