As far as I recall, going between abstraction to parent patch via inlet~/outlet~ introduces a block delay, hence no error
Third patch is like the second, only the effect has been moved out of the abstraction, and into the parent patch. ONLY HERE do I get the DSP loop error.
Signal loop in a single patch without abstractions = error. Pd has no way to read and write to the same signal buffer in the patch at the same time *without* some tiny delay.
The point is the last two patches have (or should have) an identical graph!
At the lower level, they don't. What happens if you put part of the path inside a subpath which uses inlet~/outlet~?

First abstraction, simple stereo delay: 2 delay lines, variable feedback L->R, R->L. This works, no DSP loop error.
Second abstraction contains an effect in the feedback path. (in my simple example, it's just a null wire: In-L passes to Out-L, etc). Again this works, no DSP error.

It really seems like a bug to me.
I'll upload a test patch a little later.
