Hi Bill, Thanks for reporting this issue, we are well are of it, but there is no good solution currently.

The spatialite->postgis->gdal->spatialite circular dependency is mostly problematic during geos transition on which all these packages depend. spatialite depends on postgis for the topology features in liblwgeom, these will be moved to a separate project (working title rt-topology) [0], which will remove the spatialite dependency on postgis/liblwgeom. With the new sfcgal dependency to enable 3D features in postgis we also have: postgis->sfcgal->openscenegraph->gdal->spatialite->postgis. Getting rid of liblwgeom dependency on spatialite should resolve that too. I'm not aware of upgrade problems caused by the current situation, if they exist and are common we should consider dropping the liblwgeom dependency already and live with the reduced functionality. But as far as I can tell that isn't the case.
