These two packages buildrequire each other. They're both optional test
dependencies so it's a toss-up as to which one to break the cycle in. I tested
both in F-17 as the packages require mod_perl, which is currently uninstallable
in Rawhide. The perl-Catalyst-Plugin-Session-State-Cookie test suite skips a
bit more gracefully so I'd tweak that one personally:
