Package: cuirass

adding additional inputs to cuirass specification with name started with `p` letter, fails the evaluation of specification. 

considering following specification: 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(list 
  '((#:name . "hello-spec")
    (#:load-path-inputs . ("guix"))
    (#:package-path-inputs . ())
    (#:proc-input ."guix")
    (#:proc-file . "build-aux/cuirass/gnu-system.scm")
    (#:proc . cuirass-jobs)
    (#:proc-args . ((subset . "hello")
		    (systems . ("x86_64-linux"))))
    (#:inputs . (((#:name . "guix")
		  (#:url . "git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix.git")
		  (#:load-path . ".")
		  (#:branch . "master")
		  (#:no-compile? . #t))
		 ((#:name . "pkginput")
		  (#:url . "git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix/guix-cuirass.git")
		  (#:load-path . ".")
		  (#:branch . "master")
		  (#:no-compile? . #t))
		 ))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

we receive following error:

2019-06-25T19:17:36 failed to evaluate spec 'hello-spec'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

but by just renaming the `pkginput` to something that is not starts with `p` word like `_pkginput` spec evaluation will succeed.
