Does anyone have an easy way to find circular dependency loops between modules?
I'm talking about cases like package Foo::Bar; use Foo::Boo; package Foo::Boo; use Foo::Bif; package Foo::Bif; use Foo:Bar; At compile time this causes warnings about redefined subs, but we often don't spot these warnings until some time after the change was made that introduced the circular dependency. The warnings tell you what was redefined, but don't give you the full loop, which makes it difficult to track down where the circular dependency was introduced. At the moment I'm making educated guesses based on recent commits and some grepping, hoping there's a nice Perlish shortcut. Maybe something using a sub ref on @INC?
