Ugh this is painful.  I'll checkout your stuff within the next few days. 
 If the architecture looks good and does have significantly greater 
functionality I will merge my changes into your code.

I also fixed the included variable problem and the nested include 
problems.  The conditional stuff was the only thing I thought I was missing.

I'm curious:  How could I have checked out an older version accidently? 
 Wouldn't I have had to explicitly specify a date or tag or something?

... This is all quite depressing ...
