You can also use

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure ...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

To avoid bad surprises, make sure that you've run

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./configure --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

before that.
