Hmmm. You are right. ~/.guix-profile, meanwile, does point inside
/var/guix. 

I have wondered before how GC works on profiles not in /var/guix.

Where does it store that state? In the database? I mean, if I simply
remove the symlink

  lrwxrwxrwx  1 wrk   502   51 Feb 19 09:38 guix-build-system-1-link -> 
/gnu/store/0lyv2p35ziymd6xjrfxy8sp502n2ii5d-profile

how does Guix know it can GC 
/gnu/store/0lyv2p35ziymd6xjrfxy8sp502n2ii5d-profile?
