Bleah -- but I tested this earlier.  It worked...or at least I thought I 
was exercising the proper code path; I specifically wanted to make sure 
that cyclic dependencies were okay.

I guess my earlier 'test' didn't really *test* what I thought it was 
testing...sorry for the trouble, folks.

BUT: the dependency loop NEEDS to be there -- becuase those packages ARE 
mutually dependent.  It's just that setup needs to traverse the loop 
only once and terminate. :-)
