Poking around `cus-test.el` a little I think this is a load path problem
and unrelated to the defgroup form.

I can run

src/emacs -batch --eval="(require 'indian)"

in a shell and it exists without any error.

But

src/emacs -batch --eval="(require 'pakistan)"

results in

Error: file-missing ("Cannot open load file" "No such file or directory" "pakistan")
  mapbacktrace(#f(compiled-function (evald func args flags) #<bytecode -0x188ce6540514dc1>))
  debug-early-backtrace()
  debug-early(error (file-missing "Cannot open load file" "No such file or directory" "pakistan"))
  require(pakistan)
  eval((require 'pakistan) t)
  command-line-1(("--eval=(require 'pakistan)"))
  command-line()
  normal-top-level()
Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, pakistan

Similarly starting with

src/emacs -Q

M-: (require 'indian) RET

works

but

M-: (require 'pakistan) RET

doesn't.

Neither do any of,

M-: (require 'ipa) RET
M-: (require 'uni-input) RET

If fact there are 10 files in lisp/leim/quail with provide forms.

Out of these requiring one philippine, indonesian, indian, misc-lang and
emoji succeeds.

While requiring one of uni-input, rfc1345, compose, pakistan or hangul
leads to an error.

I don't know why this is the case.
