It looks like cuirass is expecting the specifications to be a 
string, not a list. I don't know anything about cuirass, so I 
can't help you to configure the cuirass-service.

Looking at the source, specifications has a comment ";string
(file-name)". It looks like the "specifications" field of the
configuration is just equivalent to the --specifications argument to the
cuirass command, if that helps at all.
