Guix's enchant misreports numerals on Debian---both buster and bullseye

Hello.  I reported Emacs bug#42248 and I and the Emacs developers
realized at least part of the problem is with Guix version of Enchant.

On an updated Debian bullseye, enchant 2.2.8 from Guix misreports
numerals.  The same enchant upstream version, when installed from APT,
does not have this problem.  Guix enchant 2.2.8 on Debian buster also
misreports numerals.

See (on Debian bullseye):

$ enchant-2 -v
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Enchant 2.2.8)
$ which enchant-2
/usr/bin/enchant-2
$ enchant-2 -l -d en_US /tmp/enchant-test.txt
Doesn
Amarelou

$ guix install enchant; hash enchant-2
[...]
$ enchant-2 -v
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Enchant 2.2.8)
$ which enchant-2
/home/jorge/.guix-profile/bin/enchant-2
$ enchant-2 -l -d en_US /tmp/enchant-test.txt
2015
Casa
42
Amarelou
2018

The file /tmp/enchant-test.txt:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Doesn't 2015
Casa 42
Amarelou 2018
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So enchant 2.2.8 (either from APT or from Guix) does not understand
"doesn't"; and, what's worse, enchant-2.2.8 from Guix reports every
numeral as a misspelling.
