Given that Guix is a new distro you should really try to get rid of 1.4
and only use 2.1.  For Windows we use the name "gpg" for a long time now
and there is a configure option --enable-gpg2-is-gpg to make it easier.

Right - Although I sign my commits,e other GnuPG hackers don't do it,
and thus for me there is no strong need to verify the commits. But we
should have these tools.
