It appears that glib-compile-schemas is called during the build or installation
process of brasero.

Inside /nix/store/...brasero/share/glib-2.0/schemas,
there is a file org.gnome.brasero.gschema.xml, which has been compiled into
gschemas.compiled. So this gschemas.compiled is installed into the user
profile, and with the following line added to .bashrc:
   export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/.guix-profile/share
it is found and brasero starts up.

Of course, this works only as long as only one gnome program is installed,
since all the different gschemas.compiled step on each other's toe.
