Rich,

May I please enter an issue to track the defect that require/use's
":reload-all" flag is not working properly in Clojure.

How does this interact with:

http://code.google.com/p/clojure/issues/detail?id=3

Here's what I tried to reproduce that problem:

        - restored the "throw on circular load" lines to clojure.core/load

        - compiled all of Clojure and contrib successfully



                (ns hello
                  (:gen-class))

                (defn hello [] (prn "hi"))

                (defn -main []
                  (hello))

I don't know enough to answer properly. Perhaps we can make it moot by fixing issue 3. I have ideas for things to try, but to test them I need to reproduce the problem that caused you to remove the throw on circular load from clojure.core/load. - Compiled/loaded/ran this successfully from Clojure and by using hello as a java main: I thought that the default of :load-impl-ns to true would trigger the problem, but it didn't. Could you please give me an example of code that triggers the undesired throw on circular load?
