Hello bug-guix,

I have found that the command `guix import hackage foo` sometimes fails.
I will try to provide a few examples.

Of course, the errors will all be relatively similar since they seem to
be parsing errors.  Packages which fail include:

* base-compat
* base-orphans
* clock
* fast-logger
* fgl
* generic-deriving
* happy
* hscolour
* nats
* ObjectName
* old-locale
* QuickCheck
* SDL
* setenv
* split
* StateVar
* streaming-commons
* syb
* tagged
* transformers-base
* wai
* xmonad
* xmonad-contrib
* xmonad-extras
* zip-archive
* zlib

Cheers,
p.
