Exactly. Not that Function.prototype.constructor == Function, so it does
not even take user intervention for creating circular dependencies.
It's builtin  for ActionScript.

For everyone else: It took me a minute to understand the significance of this, but what it says is that every function declaration generates a perimeter=2 closed cycle which is impervious to ordinary RC methods.

For strk: Since this case is so common, is it possible and feasible to make the constructor reference to the function a weak reference, as an optimization? If so, might this not be a good, relatively isolated place in the code to deploy and test weak references?
