I'm not sure I understand the problem.  I don't see a cycle anywhere.
In cgixx/Makefile.am, you use
  SUBDIRS = src cgi++

and in src/Makefile.am, you use
  lib_LTLIBRARIES = libcgixx.la
  pkglib_LTLIBRARIES = libcgixx-js.la
  libcgixx_js_la_LDFLAGS = -module -avoid-version
  libcgixx_js_la_LIBADD = libcgixx.la

and in cgi++/jsutil/Makefile.am, you use
  lib_LTLIBRARIES = libcgixx-jsutil.la
  libcgixx_jsutil_la_LDFLAGS = -static
  libcgixx_jsutil_la_LIBADD = ../../src/libcgixx.la

Problem solved?  If not, then please post some build error output.

Cheers,
Ralf
