Minimal example (with Guix REPL):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guix-user)> ,use (gnu services configuration)
scheme@(guix-user)> (define serialize-boolean (lambda (x y) #t))
scheme@(guix-user)> (define-configuration example-configuration (1-foo (boolean #t) "lorem ipsum"))
scheme@(guix-user)> (configuration->documentation 'example-configuration)
%example-configuration
@c %start of fragment
@deftp {Data Type} example-configuration
Available @code{example-configuration} fields are:
@table @asis
@item @code{#@{1-foo@}#} (default: @code{#t}) (type: boolean)
lorem ipsum
@end table
@end deftp
@c %end of fragment
scheme@(guix-user)>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This seems to be an issue involving how 'object->string' works:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guile-user)> (object->string '1-foo)
$1 = "#{1-foo}#"
scheme@(guile-user)> (object->string '-foo)
$2 = "-foo"
scheme@(guile-user)> (object->string 'foo-1-bar)
$3 = "foo-1-bar"
scheme@(guile-user)> (object->string 'foo-1)
$4 = "foo-1"
scheme@(guile-user)>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Grepping guile source, we see that 'format' also uses 'object->string' for the ~a format, which prints:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guile-user)> (format #t "Expected: ~a, ~a; Unexpected: ~a;~%" 'foo '-foo '1-foo)
Expected: foo, -foo; Unexpected: #{1-foo}#;
$5 = #t
scheme@(guile-user)>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
