Subject: smithforth: missing source (?)

Hi, I think the smithforth package is nice addition to Guix. However, if I run the command to get the source...

``` guix build -S smithforth
/gnu/store/4w4v7zv4vif2k55g9srmv57fg5icpl94-SForth220711dmp.txt
```

...I only get the annotated header/opcode file. However, the forth system provided in the binary includes also the words defined here:

{https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/system220711fs.txt}

It seems to me that `guix build -S' should return both these files in some form. Maybe in a tar file...?

``` guix show smithforth
