SYNOPSIS
cpp_check_cycles.pl
DESCRIPTION
This will check for cyclic includes in the baseline. Cyclic includes are redundant since each h file is a set of promises by the programmer to the compiler and it is protected against double inclusion. If a cycle exists, then this protection is the only thing keep the C pre processor from going into an infinite regress, but still it does mean that the loop is redundant and we can save time by cutting it at the bud. This check should be run in the post compile stage of the integration or at a users discretion.
