I can confirm this happens with current master.

I don't really know what you mean by "add 'pk' calls", or how to debug a 
Guile program step-by-step, could you point me to some documentation ?

Looking at the backtrace and at the code, I think the problem comes from 
"check-package-freshness". This line :

     "(when (gnu-package? package)"

might explain why the code works only for GNU packages. Isn't an 
unspecified value returned for non-GNU packages ?
