Just add a sort to the get_dir in install_dir() and the dump order will be totally deterministic. Anyway, dumping by make documentation should be disabled unless that dumping also can be made to work deterministically.

Seems to me that the fault is the incomplete handling of cyclic references in the compiler. dumpmodule.pike is used in both cases, so problems of this kind could occur during installation too if the phase of the moon produces an unfortunate module order then. A kludge is perhaps to add an adhoc ordering in dumpmodule.pike when dumping of certain modules is requested.
