We had previously put some kerberos libs (the heimdal port IIRC) into a directory that wouldn't normally get searched to work around a similar problem with other ports (where they would pick up the installed ports libs).

We should probably revert the change that caused the dependency loop right away (if you haven't already) and then fix cyrus-sasl to not opportunistically link with the kerberos libs.
