Oh, I should have said so in the commit message, sorry. The reason is that if I add (list bind "utils") to the packages field in my operating system definition, reconfiguring the system fails because "bind" is a built-in Guile procedure, and so the package variable for BIND is called "isc-bind" to avoid that conflict.
