I'd like to use Zend_Loader_Autoloader::setZfPath() and the
autoloaderZfPath application.ini directive to select a ZF version
based on Environment, exactly as described here:

http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.loader.autoloader.html#zend.loader.autoloader.zf-version

What the tutorial fails to cover is how does one introduce
Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php into your executing code without knowing
the desired ZF path/version before executing Zend_Application? It's a
kind of chicken and egg problem. Also, I've noticed that if you don't
use the same version of Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php as the one you
define in your setZfPath, then you'll get a fatal error (duplicate
class) as require_once('Zend/Loader.php') will execute because you're
now operating in a different directory. The only way around this issue
is to remove every instance of require_once from all ZF classes and
rely on Zend_Loader_Autoloader for all file inclusions.

So, my question is, how are we supposed to use
Zend_Loader_Autoloader::setZfPath() and the autoloaderZf directives?
