I think “bin” would be a more conventional name for the output; this is
used in a couple of packages and recognized by ‘package->recutils’.

However, what does ‘guix size slurm:client’ report?  I suspect it
depends on slurm:out, in which case moving to a separate output makes no
difference from that perspective.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
