Comment (by owst):

 Yes, I agree I am, I will try to suggest some edits.

 And yes, I had a feeling mutually-recursive bindings would be the source
 of pain!

 Hmm. My next thought is why not just create declaration "groups" for each
 top-level declaration? What are we gaining by requiring groups with >1
 member? If this happened, the definition of {{{Huh}}} would be its own
 declaration group, which would precede the reify, and all would be good...
 or would it?
