The unit system allows cyclic linking. You can decide how you want to
split things up, put signatures for all those parts in one file, then
put a unit for each of those in a separate file, and have each import
the signatures for all the rest. Then you can link them all together
in one last file, and the linking will hook up the cyclic dependencies
for you. However, the module dependencies will be a DAG: the linking
module imports all the unit modules, and the unit modules all import
the signature module, and that's it.
