As make-iso9660-image is moved from '(gnu build vm)' to '(gnu build
image)', I think it is safe to remove iso9660-image from '(guix system
vm)'.

Yes, because '(gnu system image)' does not yet support producing
disk-images when the bootloader is Grub non-EFI or extlinux.
The "system-image" procedure in '(gnu system image)' is taking care of
the transition. Once support for those two bootloaders is added, we will
be able to get rid of "qemu-image", I guess.
Thanks,
Mathieu
