(*sigh*)  So the idea of acyclic package graph as module containers is
dead?

But to explain my sigh -- I'm not surprised given my other comment
(sent prematurely); I just hope to see it still as a desirable goal.
Maybe some quick package-level graph to show cycles and try to reduce
them at easy points?

(I think that still having lots of cycles will make things more
difficult with packages, so that will be one form of discouragement,
but there will also be problems that are harder to deal with.)
