Just wanted to say THANK YOU for your work on this. We use Node as the
production Wasm runtime for testing Hoot and when I looked into
upgrading the version in Guix I was quickly overwhelmed by
bootstrapping issues. So, we are currently just using a custom build
with all the bundled stuff, which means I find myself needing to find
3 hours to build it with some regularity. What a luxury it would be to
have a substitute available directly from Guix. :)

For anyone wondering, Hoot binaries run on Node 22.3 or later so it
would be *great* to have an up-to-date package in Guix!

Thanks Jelle!!
