Can't locate object method "cfg" via package "XXX::Profiles::Profile" at 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/XXX/Profiles/Profile.pm line 112.
 
So, weaken must not work like I think.  The child has lost the link to the 
parent.  I guess the child to parent link is more important than the parent to 
child relationship.  Maybe I need to weaken the parent ref.  Maybe as Todd 
suggested I need to re-think the architecture.
 
For now I'm going to exit after a few loops and restart on cron with 
Sys::RunAlone or something like that.
 
Maybe I need to use a DESTROY block and undef($self->{"parent"}) in it.  Anyone 
know the gotchas on DESTROY?
 
Thanks,
Mike
