you can cfinclude outside of a cffunction without endangering threadsafety (in this case we are just injecting common functions into the cfc, coldfusion "includes" them as the cfc is instantiated). The effect of using cfinclude WITHIN a cffunction is much different, causing any local function variables to be automatically copied into the variables scope, basically the "instance" scope of the CFC.
re: CFC's and var/includes etc
Pre-6.1 you couldn't actually use var and include at the same time.. the include would not even pick up the argument scope. The 2.2 build will see a lot of pick ups on the VAR scope being used everywhere. Post 2.2 we'd love to have non-var'd variables reported as bugs.
The include issue is a little trickier. We use this everywhere and its unfortunate that this CFMX bug has reared its ugly head. The main reason for we're using INCLUDES in the CFCs is for readability. Makes it much neater to compartmentalise the code that way. This is especially true of functions with complex outputs like EDIT handlers.
Sadly, by the looks of things the only approach is to remove all includes from functions.
