Unfortunately, that doesn’t prevent anything: it’s roughly equivalent to
having #:use-module (gnu packages databases).

Interesting, ok. I thought I'd seem some other such comment elsewhere, but maybe I'm mistaken.

However, maybe the circular dependency is not a problem here. Does
“make clean-go && make” succeed?

It does succeed, yes. So maybe it isn't a problem. I'll remove that bit. Thanks.
