In fact, this is a perl problem, since this problem occur at pass 1.

``ls -la'' gives useful information, as ``head abb.wml'' does.

Do you mean that everything is right when the -I option is on the
command line? So is your .wmlrc readable?

To debug this problem, turn on verbose mode. With

prompt> wml -v9 abb.wml

Take a close look at the line beginning with
** WML:Verbose: splitting to argv
If your .wmlrc is read, you should see ``|-I|INCLUDES|'' near the EOL.
