Merge fails on complicated data structure because of cycle references
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-3046
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3046
             Project: Hibernate3
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.2.4
         Environment: Hibernate-3.2.4.ga, db-platform any (h2 &  oracle tested)
            Reporter: Pavol Zibrita


On complicated object structure, hibernate was unable to merge it correctly because of attaching ID's to the new objects in the tree of the persistent entity. Hibernate cannot cope with cyclic references in this case and it fails with:
