We usually prefer to do this

    (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys)
      (let* ((out (assoc-ref outputs "out"))
             … out …)))

instead of using the magical “%output”.

Would it work to use “install-file” here (or to use Guile’s “symlink
oldpath newpath”) instead of shelling out?
