P.S. If the patch doesn't work, it would be useful if you could save, from the "source/racket/build/cs/c/" directory relative to the build directory reported by `guix build --keep-failed`, you could send the files "Makefile", "cs_config.h", "config.status", and "config.log", which might have useful information for debugging.
