[Andrew asks for proof that circular inheritance matters.]

I believe circular inheritance has yet to prove its practical value,
there are probably only 1-2 programs that have ever used it beyond
the examples.

While circular inheritance is not common in real Unicon programs, the
closure-based inheritance that enables it is cool.  Other languages
with multiple inheritance do not do as well as Unicon at handling the
semantics when a given method might be inherited from any of several
ancestors.
