I re-used the version here:

  (commit (string-append "v" version))

I used G-expressions:

  (arguments (list #:phases #~(modify-phases ...)))

No need for trailing #T at the end of phases; il removed it.

I removed the outputs argument...

... and used (string-append #$output ...)

Indentation is surprising here. I changed it.

Descriptions should consist of full sentences:

  "This package provides host tools for..."
