This is only a problem from a certain point of view. What happens here makes sense to me according to Fantomas' internal rules. Open statements are grouped into an open list; module aliases are not part of that grouping. Thus we end up with three Oak nodes, two of which are multiline, which explains the newlines between the module aliases.
