I meant something like "$ guix pull --url=. --commit=... --root=guix0"
or "$ ./pre-inst-env guix pull --url=. --commit=... --root=guix1" or
"$ ./pre-inst-env guix pull --root=guix2".  Simply running "$
guix pull",
outside "./pre-inst-env", would simply test the (unpatched) guix you have
installed (with "make install" or "apt-get install guix" or "guix pull"),
and doesn't test the patched guix.

Greetings,
Maxime.
