Actually, if you also do ‘-S /bin/bash=bin/bash’ and then run /bin/bash in the environment, Bash will source /etc/profile.

It’s definitely a good idea, and I think it wouldn’t be hard to do. Essentially, you’d have to follow the same approach as the one used for etc/profile creation in (guix profiles). See ‘profile-derivation’ as well as ‘build-etc/profile’ in (guix build profiles). HTH! Ludo’.
