I've pushed one of these patches now as
72ec11d24f34104efce0d91050a3faba4e2c7242. I missed any other patches
that were sent to this issue.

I think removing the --disable-eme option is OK on aarch64 as it's
probably not an option since I'm guessing EME isn't available on
aarch64. Anyway, Icecat looks to add these disable options by default so
I'm not sure we need it for any architecture in the guix package.
