In the presence of complicate OR groups the time required to evaluate all the possible solutions is very high (the problem is NP), so it doesn't, and won't. Your situation involves a cyclic dependency between packages, that involves an OR group - which is the worst possible situation. I advise that you remove the cycle, or perhaps try provides - the provides logic is a little bit more resistant to cycles. BTW, for future references bugs are not suitable for this kind of inquiry.
