Fix evaluation cache

98e361ad4c1a26d4ffe4762a6f33bb9e39321a39 introduced a regression where
previously stored attributes were replaced by placeholders. As a
result, a command like 'nix build nixpkgs#hello' had to be executed at
least twice to get caching.

This code does not seem necessary for suggestions to work.
