This is not related to the dancefloor. Someone on IRC mentioned that
"make clean-go" leaves a stray file guix/build/po.go.

I suppose that it should be added to Makefile.am in the line
that currently reads:
GOBJECTS = $(MODULES:%.scm=%.go) guix/config.go $(dist_noinst_DATA:%.scm=%.go)

but would like to leave it to the experts.

Actually further above we have this:
MODULES_NOT_COMPILED =                          \
  guix/build/po.scm                             \
  guix/man-db.scm

So maybe a better fix would be to move guix/build/po.scm to MODULES
instead, since apparently it is compiled.

I don't remember why we did that. The constraints for that file are:

- it's not required to install it
- it must be built before the manuals are generated (it's used for translations)
- it should be built, since otherwise it takes a long time to run
- it has no dependencies
- it's not actually stray

Not sure what the best solution for that is.
