This (admittedly suboptimal) error suggests that Guile was looking for a
closing parenthesis that never came.  Presumably the patch adds an
opening parenthesis but forgets to close it.

Editors such as Emacs and Vim have support to highlight parentheses or
even enter them automatically; I suggest using that to simplify work
with Scheme code.  For Emacs, see
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/The-Perfect-Setup.html>.

Thanks,
