If people want to shoot themselves in the foot then you should let them, allowing multiple includes allows a competent person to structure their files and avoid duplication. Detecting cycles is simple, just count the number of include tokens seen and error out after an arbitrary number if the number is large enough then a legitimate configuration will work but an include loop will error out quickly. -- Brett Lymn -- Sent from my NetBSD device.
