It's got to either be the define, or something a bit fundamentally
broken in the graphing.
Note that consistently tracking cycles is often confusing because it
can appear to be working but then fails when the hashing algorithm
starts producing a different value (and thus affects sort order for
otherwise-unsorted resources).
Obviously this should have thrown an error, but considering that I
wrote the entire graph library (drastically simplified and sped up
from a different library), I wouldn't be all that surprised if there
were cases it missed. Disappointed, but not surprised. :/

We only update the release number on release, mostly because gems suck
(you can't have letters in release numbers) and my release system is
stodgy (you can't release a version whose release number is already in
the file).
