Hi Dan,

If you used my sample correctly you should get the same result and the 
cause is already explained by Derick.

Sorry but this is not true, check the manual:
"Files for including are first looked for in each include_path entry 
relative to the current working directory, and then in the directory of 
current script."

p.s.: I run into this problem using amfphp which overwrites the error 
handler with a function which simply convert the error to an excepton.
