Could you run these packages through 'guix lint'?  It should warn about
the "A" at the beginning of a synopsis.

While adding ghc packages in the past, I've tried to keep the packages
alphabetically sorted.  I'm not sure whether there's concensus on doing
that.  We have 'guix edit', but for catch-all modules like (gnu
packages haskell) I think it's still nice to have some semblance of
order. We added a plea message at the top of gnu/packages/python.scm;
maybe we should add one to gnu/packages/haskell.scm.  What do others
think?
