Comment:
Actually, could we just delete this paragraph:
"Consequently, this option does will complain about cyclic recursive
definitions."
It is awkward ("cyclic recursive") and it's only true for "cyclic
recursive definitions" that shadow other names, which
was just explained.
IMHO, the paragraph before this one would be clearer without this
"explanatory" remark. I make this suggestion because
whenever I read this, I have to do a double-take to figure out what is
really meant.
