I just re-initialized the git repo, and changed the channel introduction
to use the initial commit on the new repo.  A 'guix pull' ran just fine.
Then I committed a change that added a single newline at the end of a
file, the error came back.

I tried this, the only output I got was:
;;; note: source file ./kjartan/packages/emacs.scm
;;;       newer than compiled 
/gnu/store/bgnnzx7qsiy22yggh3a0q4i0932n6hl7-kjartan/lib/guile/3.0/site-ccache/kjartan/packages/emacs.go

I am well aware of this, everything I have written in every file of the
channel has been written in Emacs, which does not report any unmatched
'(' anywhere in either of the two files I currently have.
