Comment (by ajd):
I wrote a patch to "fix" this but I'm not sure it ought to be the correct
behavior. According to the comments around the function in question,
-ignore-package already has this behavior because it's supposed to be used
as a just-in-case thing, they way you are trying to use -hide-package.
Anyway, I'm attaching the patch and I'll leave it up to the powers that be
to decide what to do about it.
