OK, so here's another take at this problem: https://github.com/mozilla/pymake/pull/21
I realize it seems a little aggressive, but by merging all these intedependent modules (data, parser, parserdata, command, functions) into one, the problem naturally disappears. This was inspired by Benjamin's comment: > This is mostly inherent in the make processing model itself. Because of $(eval), > function evaluation has a "backwards" dependency on the parser module. -- I realized that if Make concepts leak so freely between layers, we might as well go with it. Given this structure as a base, it's probably possible to extract independent parts into their own modules. I understand if this seems like a problematic change overall, but I've been able to pass the tests based with a few isolated changes on top of this patch. Now that circular dependencies are broken and qualified imports are possible, making a pip-compatible package should be a no-brainer as well. What do you think? - Kim
