The reason I want two commits is strategic.  This first patch can go
into master *now*, without breaking anything or causing a full
rebuild.  Moving that procedure into (guix build utils) is nice, but
not strictly necessary.  I am trying to get basic container support in
shape and into master.  Waiting on a core-updates cycle would just
stall the process.
