Hello!
The closure of Guix built with 2.0 is 193.8 MiB; when built with 2.2,
it’s 311.8 MiB. Guix itself goes from 66 to 150 MiB:

Would you have any suggestions to shrink the ELF files a bit?
Binutils’ ‘strip’ command bails out on .go files:
strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file
`/gnu/store/jh07pwbyf5dbpdd5q0nvgagqkgmh76nh-guix-0.12.0-9.25a4/lib/guile/2.2/site-ccache/guix/scripts/refresh.go'
Also we’d rather avoid stripping debug info, if possible, to preserve
debuggability.
Thoughts?
Ludo’.
