OK.  But how can I get the location of a package?  The needed procedure
(i.e., 'package-output') is in the host code.

Why do you want to use '#:rest' here?  The purpose of 'wrap-program' is
to export some variables.

Could you explain the "$CERT_PATH${CERT_PATH:+:}" part?

Is it possible to make it optional without creating a separate clause?

I'm attaching a patch.  It lacks the 'rename-file' part.
