Do Readline and LAPACK show up in ‘guix gc --references $(guix build
apl)’?  If they don’t, you can remove them.

As for gettext, please check in the log whether some of its commands are
actually run.  Normally, when using Autoconf + Automake, the source
tarball comes with .mo files, so it’s not necessary to have Gettext as
an input.

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.

Thanks,
