So for eg, this:

(channel
 (version 0)
 (dependencies
  (channel
   (name 'some-collection)
   ...
   )))

...as given in info:guix#Declaring_Channel_Dependencies causes 'guix
pull' to fail ("channels.scm:719:22"). But when the value is unquoted:

(channel
 (version 0)
 (dependencies
  (channel
   (name some-collection)
   ...
   )))

...it works fine.
