I think the grafting comes in here [1], within the build-self.scm
script, and I think that the --no-grafts argument to guix pull doesn't
currently affect the behaviour at that point.
1: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/build-aux/build-self.scm#n350
That's where the patch here [2] comes in, as it makes it possible to
control the grafting behaviour at that point, at least enough to
demonstrate that there's some change in behaviour.
