I suspect that the advice to use absolute paths is somebody NOT
understanding the include_path system, and just "giving up" on it,
possibly combined and confused with not using an unconstrained
variable in the path...

Nothing irks me more than stupidly-designed software that hard-codes
paths into includes so I can't move all their include files OUT of the
web-tree without a lot of grief.

More than a few software packages will not get installed for my
clients, no matter how nice the software might seem, until this is
fixed, because I just don't have the time to fix their mistakes.
