Nice program, I didn't know about it, thanks!

The patch looks good to me, except the indentation of this
(string-append ...).  I usually write 'source' fields like this:

    (source (origin
              (method url-fetch)
              (uri (string-append "mirror://xorg/individual/util/lndir-"
                                  version ".tar.bz2"))
              (sha256
               (base32
                "0pdngiy8zdhsiqx2am75yfcl36l7kd7d7nl0rss8shcdvsqgmx29"))))

But this is not a big deal, of course :-)

I prefer
(uri (string-append
        "mirror://xorg/individual/util/"
        "lndir-" version ".tar.bz2"))

But in this case I thought that keeping consistent with how it was
done in the xorg.scm file was more important than my preference. What
do you think?

OK, but then it should be (note the indentation of 'string-append'):

  (uri (string-append
        "mirror://xorg/individual/util/"
        "lndir-" version ".tar.bz2"))

Many (probably most) packages in xorg.scm have bad indentation.
