There is no nix-daemon on my machine.

I get:
starting substituter program 
`/usr/local/guix-git/libexec/nix/substituters/download-using-manifests.pl'
download-using-manifests.pl: error: executing 
`/usr/local/guix-git/libexec/nix/substituters/download-using-manifests.pl': No 
such file or directory

"strings guix-daemon" contains /nix/substituters/download-using-manifests.pl.

I just did a "git pull; ./sync-with-upstream" in the nix subdirectory, then a
"make distclean", bootstrap, configure and make. The result is the same, there
is still a reference to
   /usr/local/guix-git/libexec/nix/substituters/download-using-manifests.pl
