Personally I never understood why we've set_include_path in the first place anyway. "ini_set('include_path', ..." does exactly the same and the C function does actually exactly this.

Short history lesson:
The reason for set_include_path() is that many shared hosters disable ini_set(), yet many libraries/apps depend on users being able to control their include path.

Fair enough. I think I feel pretty lucky that I've never had to operate in such environments ...

On the other hand I feel unqualified taking a position here either then :)

thanks,
