There are no *cyclic* dependencies, but dependencies between the libs
certainly exist. In fact, if build.conf specifies a cycle, then gen-make
will error out, telling you about the problem.

libtool can't deal with cycles, so we don't allow them. Not to mention for
the simple fact that a cycle implies bad layering of functionality.
