Description:
------------
This may not make a lot of sense at first look, but it 
makes perfect sense if you're using a CONFIG_FILE_SCAN_DIR 
and trying to install a number of 3rd party modules: 
 
php.ini settings should be able to reference other php.ini 
settings 
 
Example: 
[CONFIG_FILE_SCAN_DIR is set to /etc/php.d] 
 
 
/etc/php.ini has 
include_path=.;/usr/local/php-includes 
 
/etc/php.d/3rdpartymodule.ini has 
include_path=/opt/3rdpartymodule 
 
/etc/php.d/anothermodule.ini has 
include_path=/usr/local/anothermodule 
 
These are mutually exclusive --- to reduce the 
administrator workload of changing include_path for every 
3rd party module (what CONFIG_FILE_SCAN_DIR was all about 
in the first place), it would be really nice if a 3rd 
party config file could just do 
 
include_path += /opt/3rdpartymodule 
 
or 
 
include_path = $include_path:/opt/3rdpartymodule
