Is this mostly about naming?  GNU Make has guile-support by default, so
I would say that 'make' should be with Guile and if desired for some
reason, there could be a 'make-noguile' that is built without guile.

A bigger question: is 'make' really necessary in priority:standard?
Presumably anything requiring it will depend on it.

It is for desktops.

Right now rpcbind is listening on the network in a default jessie
install, and I don't like that.
