According to guix graph, guile is pulled by gnutls.

Not directly, but you could try building it with motif (package
lesstif) or Lucid/Athena (requires at least libxaw, not sure if all
dependencies for that are packaged).

What features of GTK+ would this minimal variant include/exclude
respectively?
