I think I've found the problem. If the destination repository is also in the
source repository chain, then useOrigin must be false on the cache.
A check for this might be useful. Now I'm faced with the minor problem of
toggling useOrigin="false" when I want to import from m2, and
useOrigin="true" for normal operations.
