Why guest-users.nix is an upstart job ? Shouldn't that be something
which belongs to the activation script ?

By the way, I now used a textClosure to generate the activation script
(in the fix-style branch), so this could be easier for you to do it
like that.  Currently, this part of the branch is a bit messy because
I have no idea how I should organized it.
