;;; Time traveling is a challenge!  Sometimes, going back to the past requires
;;; adjusting the old source code so it can be evaluated with our modern day
;;; Guile and against our modern Guix APIs.  This file describes quirks found
;;; in old Guix revisions, along with ways to address them or patch them.
