Is this a binary VM image dump?

If so, is there source available, a way to bootstrap it?

Please use a gexp here for #:builder and instead of the (assoc-ref …)
expressions above, use:

  #~(begin
      ;; …
      (let* ((sforth.dmp #$(package-source this-package))
             (system.fs #$(origin …)))
        …))

> +    (home-page "https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/")
> +    (synopsis "Forth programming language for x86-64 desktop computers")

Please add a ‘supported-systems’ field so the package is clearly marked
as unsupported on architectures other than x86_64.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
