When attempting to build via:

nix-build -A mu --arg withGuile false

The derivation still attempts to link against guile, meaning that --disable-guile is not passed as argument to ./configure. If I remove all the conditionals and simply set configureFlags = [ "--disable-guile" ];, it builds correctly (without linking against guile).

What am I doing wrong?
