MEF [ImportingConstructor] is not called before using [Import (AllowDefault = true)]

I use MEF1 and work with odd scenerio.

This constructor is never called:

[ImportingConstructor]
public LogViewModuleRoot(INavigationCommandManager navigationCommandManager,
                         ISettingsManager settingsManager,
                         IBusyService busyService)
{
    NavigationCommandManager = navigationCommandManager;
    SettingsManager = settingsManager;
    BusyService = busyService;
}

While the constructor is being called with the correct value when changing it:

[ImportingConstructor]
public LogViewModuleRoot(INavigationCommandManager navigationCommandManager,
                         ISettingsManager settingsManager,
                         [Import(AllowDefault = true)] IBusyService busyService)
{
    NavigationCommandManager = navigationCommandManager;
    SettingsManager = settingsManager;
    BusyService = busyService; // Properly hydrated - i.e. not null
}

Typically, an importingConstructor is not called if there is no corresponding export, but if there was no corresponding export, then it will not be able to load when the AllowDefault value is true.

What problems can cause this behavior?

If this is due to the circular dependency within the composition graph and the construction time of IBusyService, are there tools to find the root of the problem?
