Bah, turns out it’s trickier than this.  See
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/60106>.

I figured I could test it in a VM.  I ended up with a minimal change,
pushed in commit b1aef25453067004279c4267cf25e8d6d365890d, that lets
modprobe load uvesafb for good (it was all about setting
‘LINUX_MODULE_DIRECTORY’).

Let me know if anything’s amiss!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
