Comment:

 Actually, could we just delete this paragraph:
   "Consequently, this option does will complain about cyclic recursive
 definitions."

 It is awkward ("cyclic recursive") and it's only true for "cyclic
 recursive definitions" that shadow other names, which
 was just explained.

 IMHO, the paragraph before this one would be clearer without this
 "explanatory" remark.  I make this suggestion because
 whenever I read this, I have to do a double-take to figure out what is
 really meant.
