I would need to check the history in the jake repo but I think it dates from a prototype version of that attribute that only listed the concealed packages. I think it should be okay to just drop this from ModuleInfoWriter now. As I mentioned in another comment, the only user now is tests so you should able to just remove this code so that it doesn't generate the ModulePackages attributes.
