Here is what I tried:

  $ guix import hackage monadplus
  Syntax error: unexpected end of input
  guix import: error: failed to download cabal file for package 'monadplus'

I also tried manually downloading the cabal file and importing that:

  $ guix import hackage -s < ~/Downloads/monadplus.cabal
  Syntax error: unexpected end of input
  guix import: error: failed to import cabal file from standard input

Could this be a duplicate of <https://bugs.gnu.org/25138>?

Essentially our Cabal parser doesn’t support the full syntax, which is
why some imports fail.  Would be nice to fix!

This may be closeable because I didn't notice that ghc-monadplus is
already a package.

For now I’ve merged it with #23961, because it’s really a shortcoming in
the Cabal parser.

Thanks!
