[PATCH] Add surfraw (needs review).

[ng0]

Hi,

shouldn't packages built by guix end up with guixbuilder:guixbuilder and
not root:root for owner and group? Surfraw ends up as root:root in
store. I think this might be the reason why it does not find its global
config.

./surfraw -elvi ddg asdf

I also asked upstream if there have been enough commits for a new
release (most recent one was in December 2013)
