If a graph with a countdisk or countindex has dependencies, Thor don't follow them.
It's because countindex/countdisk aren't regarded as sinks, which are traversed during preparation / dependency execution.

HThor would appear to have the same problem if it was presented with a similar graph dependency.

The situation where these can arise seems very obscure, @ghalliday and myself were unable to produce a self-contained example to reproduce a ECL example that cause this scenario, but it has been seen in a larger real world example.

Talking to @ghalliday, this may best be handled by the code generator.
