Building Guix

[Pjotr Prins]

compile.log was rather informative. I ended up with a working
configure, but now make fails with:

  g++ -Wall -std=c++0x -g -O2  -L/home/cog/pprins/.nix-profile/lib -o

Ouch.

 ldd /nix/store/pdskwizjw8ar31hql2wjnnx6g0s6xc50-glibc-2.19/lib/libpthread.so.0

shows

  /nix/store/pdskwizjw8ar31hql2wjnnx6g0s6xc50-glibc-2.19/lib/libpthread.so.0:

Hmmm. Something must have gone wrong compiling glibc-2.19. That is
odd, very odd. I know was messing with the LD paths, but I did not think
that would influence Nix builds. Do I need a fresh Nix install?

Interestingly I found a Guix expression in Nixpkgs! It is dated, guix-0.3, but 
works. Anything I need to know to update that to guix-0.6? I may do just that :)
