I'm not sure what you mean about one round of resolution. I can reproduce this exactly [0] if I set Aptitude::Auto-Install=false (either via -o or in a configuration file), which is why I was asking about ~/.aptitude/config. When I accept the suggested solution, I get a consistent result. Daniel [0] to really reproduce it exactly, I also need to set Recommends-Important to false, but I assume you know that's disabled.
