The (guix) module is supposed to export all public modules, but it does
not re-export the (guix profiles) module.

Initially (guix) would only re-export modules “commonly used” in package
modules, manifests, or ‘guix.scm’ files; (guix profiles) would not quite
fall into that category.

It might be different now that there’s a <profile> record type, for
instance. If you find it useful, I think you can go ahead and have it
re-exported.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
