Well, I also don't know why there are circular dependencies but I had
similar issues.
You can try to remove
$(eval $(call gb_Library_add_package_headers,$lib,connectivity_inc))
from makefiles for lib in sdbc2, dbpool2, calc, odbcbase, odbcl;
The dependency stays there indirectly because they all link against dbtools.

It will help.
