Hello,

The patches look good, but I'm not sure it is a good idea to publicize
the unquote+ungexp, alias ",#~", style. IIUC, in
<https://guix.gnu.org/fr/blog/2021/the-big-change/> there's some
reasoning against the abuse of unquoting. This kind of defeat the
simplicity introduced with G-expressions. So, I would favor writing:

 (list
  #:configure-flags
  #~(list ...))

WDYT?
