Merged version uses the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    (arguments
     (list
      #:make-flags
      #~(list "BUILD_INFO=\"(Guix)\"")
      #:configure-flags
      #~(list (format #f "--with-scriptpath=~{~a:~}$PATH"
                      (map (lambda (pkg)
                             (in-vicinity pkg "bin"))
                           '#$(list (this-package-input "coreutils-minimal")
                                    (this-package-input "sed")))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is that acceptable as well or should I send a patch switching to
search-input-file?

Tomas
