Hmm... this requires manual work per package, and it drops support for
multiple maintainers altogether, so I'd rather not go there. I was
thinking instead of making `:maintainer` hold only a single item (the
improper list thingy) and use `:maintainers` to hold the list of
maintainers when there's more than one, which would be more
backward compatible and would solve the problem for all packages.
