This is caused by a cycle, (gnu packages golang) uses (gnu packages check) and vice-versa, and go-github-com-robfig-cron is defined in (gnu packages golang)! So depending on whether you first use (gnu packages check) or (gnu packages golang), go-github-com-robfig-cron will not have been defined yet, hence the error. Using (gnu packages check) then (gnu packages golang) doesn't make the error appear. The solution imo, esp. since (gnu packages check) already uses (gnu packages golang), is to have the variant package defined alongside the parent. Here is a patch that should fix this.
