Here[1] is a nice example of how to break the cycle by building both so-
versions in a bootstrap build.

With the bootstrap build one can chain-build all consumers to use the
new so-version.  After that has been finished one simply rebuilds the
lib without bootstrap to just get the new so-version.

Let me know if you want me to change the nettle spec file accordingly to
the given example and trigger a working rebuild chain.

Cheers,
Björn
