I don't think this is a great error message. I use Clojure everyday and I still had to look 2 times to find the error.

If it was something like this, this would be much better:

  Unmatched parenthesis from starting at line 5.
  Maybe you wanted to do something like this?
      1   (defun foo()
      2   
      3     )
      4   
      5   (defun bar()
      6     (let (x)
      7       )
               ^

This being a very basic code. In reality you will have multiple function calls inside more complicated functions (like a package definition in Guix), so you will end closing 10+ parenthesis and catching them can be hell.
