cycle dependency openldap/cyrus-sasl

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install gentoo 11.0
2. emerge <anything, depending on ldap or sasl>
3. wait until it appoaches ldap or sasl
4. enjjoy
Actual Results:  
Unability to install anything that`s really needed

Expected Results:  
suppose, that emerge, encountering the cycle dependency within one command, should resolve it itself

Currently, you need to manually break the cycle: emerge openldap w/o sasl support, then emerge sasl and emerge openldap again. Bug 175808 tracks the feature request in portage.

NB: Your problem description is not as useful as it could be. Be sure to include actual emerge output next time.
