     It should. Perl is needed for "make check". But even if it were not, we
     always patch-shebang script files in our packages. Otherwise they would not
     be usable, since we do not have /usr/bin/perl. That I personally do not
     use these texlive scripts is not a reason to make them unusable!
     

It could be patched to "perl".  That way, so long as the user has done 
guix package -i perl  it will work for him.
