Hi all,

While looking at the eclasses today I noticed that the eclasses toolchain-funcs and multilib has a direct circular dependency. Both directly inherit each other. While multilib uses quite a few functions from toolchain-funcs, toolchain-funcs seems to use only get_libdir and get_libname only once.
Don't really know if that is a big problem, but since it was the only circular dependency i found i though to open a bug.

The maintainers of the eclasses are well aware of this, and there is code in place to prevent it from being a problem.
