I can't really help you with Guix, but I suggest setting up some
environment where you can run things in an interactive shell.

In particular that error seems to be claiming the test file doesn't
exist, which would be easy to debug in an interactive shell.

For better or for worse, our standards are higher for new code. Since
(as you have just observed) minor style problems in existing code tend
to linger unfixed.

I assume you are not using git-send-email because it's difficult for
you; it's not that a big of a deal, although we do prefer series
generated git-send-email for reviewing.
