include_once returns false if you are trying to include an already-included file. This kind of defeats the point of the _once if you are checking for errors in your include.

You will still be able to find out whether you've included a file using get_included_files.

when you use include_once second time, the include is not made (that's the point in "once"), so no error checking in your include can be ever made, because your include code just doesn't run.
