Description

I've been playing with Oak on Scala a bit and it looks like the latest changes introduced a problem that makes Oak unusable.

Basically trying to setup a repo throws the following error:

OakRepository.scala:65: error: illegal cyclic reference involving class ChangeDispatcher
[ERROR]     new Oak(new SegmentNodeStore(new FileStore(new File(fname), 268435456, true)))
[ERROR]                 ^
[ERROR] one error found

I've simplified the code down to the most basic barebone repo init to make it easier to digest [0].

This is a Scala bug, but my point is that this used to work prior to the changedispacher changes, so I'm thinking we could move some bits around to get it working from Scala again.
