Hi Guix,
I noticed that unless geiser-guile-load-path is given an absolute path,
emacs-guix doesn't work properly.
Here's a recipe to see it failing:
Write a file, say test-emacs.el:
Toggle snippet (4 lines)
(with-eval-after-load 'geiser-guile
(add-to-list 'geiser-guile-load-path "~/src/guix"))
$ emacs -q -l /path/to/test-emacs.el
M-x guix p n
Toggle snippet (8 lines)

Entering a new prompt. Type `,bt' for a backtrace or `,q' to continue.
scheme@(emacs-guix) [1]>
The attached patch fixes the code snippet in the documentation, thus
preventing others from stumbling on it.
Thank you.
