Only that we might have unncessary interdependencies.  For example, it's
quite likely that the Collections testing classes will make use of
Serialization utility methods in the IO testing classes, but that's a poor
reason to make Collections itself dependent on IO.  Of course, some of that
you can get around with documentation (Collections is dependent on X, except
for its testing classes which are dependent on X and Y.
