Thanks for the patch! Miraculously, it still applies after all this
time, and it does allow the build to proceed further, but still fails in
tests:

  starting phase `check'
  do  test
  # _/tmp/guix-build-nncp-7.5.0.drv-0/nncp-7.5.0/src/cmd/nncp-cfgdir
  cmd/nncp-cfgdir/main.go:91:4: unknown field 'AllowMinusZero' in struct literal of type hjson.EncoderOptions
  ok      _/tmp/guix-build-nncp-7.5.0.drv-0/nncp-7.5.0/src        37.407s                                                             ?       _/tmp/guix-build-nncp-7.5.0.drv-0/nncp-7.5.0/src/cmd/nncp-bundle        [no test files]

  do: test: got exit code 2
  error: in phase 'check': uncaught exception:
  %exception #<&invoke-error program: "contrib/do" arguments: ("-c" "test") exit-status: 1 term-signal: #f stop-signal: #f>
  phase `check' failed after 44.5 seconds
  command "contrib/do" "-c" "test" failed with status 1

CCed the members of the go team who may have a better idea of, well,
packaging go programs. :)

live well,
