bug#21680: 24.5; elpa gnugo-3.0 returns an error when loading sgf file

[dieter@duenenhof-wilhelm.de (H. Dieter Wilhelm)]

Emacs -Q, then loading gnugo-3.0 from ~/emacs.d/elpa, then M-x gnugo and
trying to load an sgf file from http://www.dragongoserver.net: The
package return just an error message: Bad spec: nil.  The sgf loads in
gnugo 3.8 without errors.  When translating the "dragon" sgf file into a
gnugo sgf file it is also not possible to read the gnugo sgf into
gnugo-3.0. (The same error message occurs.)

Here's the file's content (output from gnugo 3.8 (debian 8.0), made the
name of my opponent unrecognisable):
