Thanks, pushed as d89247150fe6e97c2fceed8d578fd119a782624d.  I removed
the last sentence of the second commit message, as it was no longer
applicable.

Best,

This patch stops Guix from shipping user tools that, according to two Heimdal
maintainers have been obsolete for over five years.

While mostly harmless, those tools shadowed legitimate tools like 'su' from
core-utils. [1]

Felix Lechner (3):
  gnu: heimdal: Build from Git.
  gnu: heimdal: Drop obsolete and insecure user tools.
  gnu: heimdal: Re-indent code; no functional change.
