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.
