This was intentional. Both gradle and intellij can handle this. I asked max and he said that such a set up was in some way workable.

I dont understand what is so foreign about this "circularity". Look at it at the task level. You compile hibernate-core/src/main; you compile hibernate- testing/src/main; you compile hibernate-core/src/test. Yes there is "circularity" if you look strictly at this in terms of modules. But in terms of tasks and source sets there is not.
