Works nicely:

scheme@(guix-user)> ,build (@ (gnu packages base) hello)
[...]
$1 = "/gnu/store/s5pd3rnzymliafb4la5sca63j86xs0y0-hello-2.12.1"

though an actual documented _procedure_ (not command) seems to be
missing, so maybe the issue needs to be reopened later, don't know yet
...

Greetings,
Maxime.
