It's a "same-across-platforms" thing. Mostly to do with the fact we
use mod-rewrite. :(

It is pretty much include() and its relatives. Autoloading with a lot
of possible include paths. I'm sure if you had a Zend Framework App
and put it on Windows, and took out all the require_onces with paths
in them and instead added all those folders to the include path, you
would see what I mean. However, on Linux it would fly. Not that it
matters to me, since I parse all our files and find a dependancy tree
and merge them before deploying to a webfarm. (I do parsing /
combining of CSS also, but need to keep a distance vector when
compressing them, otherwise the order of some rules shifts too much
when combined... hmm... guess what I am working on today?)
