     Do I get it right that these changes aim to make ???mount -t nfs??? work?
     That is, to allow ???mount??? to find the ???mount.nfs???(?) program.

That is correct.
     
     If so, would it work to just do:
     
       "--enable-fs-paths-default=/run/current-system/profile/sbin"
     
     ?
     
     That would only work on GuixSD, but Guix???s ???mount??? is certainly not 
very
     useful on foreign distros.
     

That would certainly be a solution easier to do.   
But doesn't it mean that we have a "functionally impure" system?
