Is there a simple way to do this without `herd'?

There is! I followed the vague instructions in this message to convert my debian installation to a GuixSD installation and it (broadly speaking) worked. The trick is not to "init", but just to "reconfigure" into GuixSD. It feels a bit hacky, but it works.
