Yes, it's because it sees the intermediate
state (6,1) when it shouldn't (it processes
each foreign key separately and does the cascade
update which places it in an "invalid" state
since the 1 key no longer exists).

I believe the fixes I've been working on for deferred
constraints will make this case work as well.
