No, the scanner just looks for the hash part of the store file name (see
‘scanForReferences’ in nix/libstore/references.cc).
How much of a problem is this though? Currently the set of references
looks reasonable:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix size go-ipfs

Well OK we could do with a single gcc:lib :-), but other than that it
looks good.
Thoughts?
