It does!  It’s really great.  I just updated guix.gnu.org with this
command:

   GUIX_WEB_SITE_URL="//guix.gnu.org/" ./pre-inst-env  guix build -f 
doc/build.scm

And then

   rsync -rzvha --copy-links /gnu/store/…-guix-manual/ …/manual/

Thank you!

I see why you needed help with the modular TeX now… I started the
wip-texlive branch to overhaul our TeX packages, but as it requires
changes to svn-fetch and some core texlive-* packages it will need to be
merged into core-updates at some point.
