I would rather install the handler as a phase in gnu-build-system: this
leaves ‘build-expression->derivation’ generic, and also gives us more
flexibility (e.g., we can disable that phase without doing a full
rebuild if needed.) See the patch below.
On my first attempt with:
./pre-inst-env guix build -e '(@@ (gnu packages commencement) findutils-boot0)'

This is why ‘install-SIGCHLD-handler’ in the patch does nothing on Guile
Now, we’d need to test it for real with Guile 2.2. I suppose one way to
test without rebuilding it all would be to add this phase explicitly in
a package and try building it with --rounds=10 or something. Would you
Note that we have only a couple of days left before the ‘core-updates’
