Importing files in order

[Chip Seraphine]

My import section pulls in several files and, at the end, does this:

cf.foo

complain::
        cf.complain


The idea is that if one of the previous imports sets the 'complain' 
class, then cf.complain will execute and various alerts/emails/syslog 
messages/whatever are generated depending on wether or not other classes 
are also defined.

The problem is that the master file does not see the "complain" class 
being defined by the previous imports, so even if cf.foo defines 
'complain' then cf.complain is not imported.

Is there a good way to guarantee that the section is processed in order? 
 Since import: isn't in the actionsequence, I can't do what I usually 
do and just rerun it with a bogus class appended (something like 
"actionsequence = ( import import.pass2 )").  I have considered having 
an unconditional import at the bottom that then does a conditional 
import of complain, but that is very kludgey.

Any suggestions/tips/tricks?
