Solve the cyclical dependency via breaking the use cycle and doing two |

builds of the target instead. |

It *does* work. Now I'm reasonably sure I've since *broken* that |
| 10 |
support in pkgcore since stubbs/myself worked it out (resolver still |
| 11 |
supports it though), but that doesn't mean restoring it is hard. |

Frankly I'd rather see us support these things then have the PM bitch |
| 14 |
at the user or make guesses on the users behalf. |

My 2 cents either way- mainly responding since you seem to be ignoring |
| 17 |
that as long as pkg_pretend isn't fricking used, we've got a way to |
| 18 |
break use induced cyclical deps automatically via the PM. |
