It's because of the cl-xxx and ecl-xxx packages that are created by
transforming the definition of the sbcl-xxx package to use cl-* or ecl-*
packages as inputs instead of sbcl-*.

If the sbcl-xxx package has '("sbcl-fiveam" ,sbcl-fiveam)' as input,
after transformation the ecl-xxx package will have
'("sbcl-fiveam" ,ecl-fiveam)' as inputs, which looks strange (but it
will work anyway as the string is just used to reference an input in
custom phases using something like '(assoc-ref inputs "sbcl-xxx")').

By using just "fiveam" as string, the sbcl-xxx package has
'("fiveam" ,sbcl-fiveam)' as input, and the ecl-xxx package will have
'("fiveam" ,ecl-fiveam)'.
