Hi!

libfive doesn't build anymore.

I've hacked together a script which uses `guix time-machine` and binary 
search to
determine when something broke:
<https://codeberg.org/nomike/guix-binary-issue-search>

With this I was able to confirm that the build of libfive is broken 
starting from
commit 0559a4b5472f9dc4c88240c61e7ad49a95855d6f.

Commit comment:

```plaintext
Author: Nicolas Graves <ngraves <at> ngraves.fr>
Date:   Tue Jul 8 11:26:04 2025 +0200

    build-system: guile: Remove unused build defaults.

    Defaults should be set in guix/build-system/guile.scm rather than
    guix/build/guile-build-system.scm, to disambiguate at first sight
    where those defaults are set.

    * guix/build-system/guile.scm (guile-build)
      <#:not-compiled-file-regexp>: Add default.

    * guix/build/guile-build-system.scm (build): Remove unused keyword
      defaults.

I want to finalize and submit a new package for PythonSCAD. a 
programmating 3D modelling tool but I'm now blocked
due to it's dependency on libfive.

@Nicolas: Could you (or someone else) have a look at this and fix it please?

Thanks

nomike
