Did you test this?

There's a syntax error in the code, such that it not only fails to
build, but it fails even to produce a _derivation_ describing the build.
Unfortunately, this kind of error in any package causes problems for our
build farm, which currently assumes that this kind of error will not
occur.  Such errors not only cause the individual build to fail, but
moreover for the entire process that generates a new CI "evaluation" to
fail, which effectively prevents subsequent package updates on that
branch from being built until the problem is corrected.

I reverted this commit.

Please be careful when pushing to master.

     Thanks,
       Mark

There is a missing "#:phases" keyword here before (modify-phases ...).
