Unfortunately that's pretty much the same thing we tried first on this.
Even with the include path set to include every directory that contains
a script we need to access, the same error happens.

No, the ideal is to not touch the config.php file or any of the other
required files (otherwise we may just aswell write our own) so those
functions and the __FILE__ constant are not usable.
Unless i miss your point?
