Is there any work towards something like C languages '#include' in

something
different.
Currently the only thing existing along these lines is the exec
command in grunt. I don't think we're opposed to a #include
functionality, we just haven't done it. However, given that Pig
doesn't have function calls, and presumably each Pig Latin script is
self contained, it isn't clear to me how useful it will be.
