Craigbot says: I think IDL has a cycle counting bug. If your objects
are doubly- (or morely-) linked, then I'm guessing that IDL is trying
to resolve the cycles, but fails. I bet if you try a simpler data
structure, one without cycles, it will save fine.

But robots don't guess or bet, so I must have a logic error.
