Damn, the machine I tested this on I added one pair of parens which
shouldn't have been there.

 (services (cons* (gnome-desktop-service)
                  (xfce-desktop-service)
                  (service
                   openssh-service-type
                   (openssh-configuration
                   (x11-forwarding? #t)
                   (permit-root-login 'without-password)))
                  %desktop-services))

works. The error messages could be more intuitive :)
