OK, I solved my pandoc problem by including `ghc-pandoc` along with
`texlive` among --ad-hoc inputs, rather than a regular one. From now on,
I will be using --ad-hoc, exclusively.

Still, this does not solve the issue with the fontspec example. I tried
the manual approach by following [1]. I dug through the symlinks just to
be sure.

$ guix environment … --ad-hoc texlive texlive-lm
[env]$ set | grep GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
   GUIX_ENVIRONMENT=/gnu/store/z50qrshwcl155qrm1q0kbby1sqsmj4iz-profile

[env]$ fc-cache -v 
/gnu/store/q4a3l4ki8rcjlhqxkmyaws0pybvska8s-texlive-lm-49435/share/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/lm
   
/gnu/store/q4a3l4ki8rcjlhqxkmyaws0pybvska8s-texlive-lm-49435/share/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/lm:
 skipping, existing cache is valid: 72 fonts, 0 dirs
[env]$ ls | wc
        72      72    1653
[env]$ fc-list | grep Modern
   # nothing
[env]$ fc-list | grep lm
   # nothing

I also tried doing the fc-* stuff with sudo, nothing again.

There was no
$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT/etc/fonts/conf.avail/09-texlive-fonts.conf
, so I could not try the second approach mentioned in [1].
