Something like this should work, no other wrapper needed:

  service=makepkg _sequence $_comps[makepkg]

In my install the service dispatcher function is _pkgtool not _pacman,
so using $_comps[makepkg] in the call to _sequence should get the
right one, whichever.

(Nod over to Daniel on the _services thread.)
