With the change below, every service except the offending one is loaded
and started as expected:

(There’s still this scary-looking but harmless backtrace in the middle:
that’s because (start-in-the-background '(something-that-does-not-exist))
throws like that as of 0.10.4.)

Once booted, shepherd is fine and you can interact normally with it; the
only thing missing is, in this case, the ‘gwl-web’ service, which we
failed to load.

I think that’s a significant improvement.

Thoughts?
