This is indeed a problem - and one I would describe as the general class "dealing with other agents who are fucking with you." It is not one that can be solved and I believe a "correct" decision theory will, in fact, lose (compared to CDT) in this case.
Note that there seems to be some chance that I am confused in a way analogous to the way that people who believe "Two boxing on Newcomb's is rational" are confused. There could be a deep insight I am missing. This seems comparatively unlikely.
