We already know the cause and the solution: MyViewController.h imports
MySubview.h, and MySubview.h imports MyViewController.h. The standard
C header preprocessor trick does not help in this situation, and
neither does import.
The solution is to use a forward declaration. For ObjC classes this
looks like "@class Foo;". For functions it's a prototype delcaration:
"int foo();". Structs are similar: "struct foo;", and C++ classes
follow suit: "class Foo;".
In short, this is a well-known consequence of C requiring types to be
defined before they're used.

Unfortunately, "#import" seems not to be working in the case given;
I don't know why. The mechanism I suggested might be useful for
chasing down why.

This does not solve the problem at hand (two interfaces need a
declaration of each other's symbols). The mechanism you describe is
obsoleted by #import.
