#include oddness.

[Ken McGlothlen <nospam@thanx>]

I have a file at the base of my web directory (henceforth called
"basedirectory") called sitedef.wmi.  It has a bunch of definitions in it.  The
various .wml files in the same directory include that file, and it all works
great.

In a subdirectory of that, I also have a file called sitedef.wmi.  It contains,
in toto:

        #include <sitedef.wmi>

which all the .wml files in this subdirectory include.  I compile all the .wml
files in this directory with wml -Ibasedirectory, and that works great, too.

In a subdirectory of *that*, I also have a file called sitedef.wmi.  It
contains, in toto:

        #include <sitedef.wmi>

which all the .wml files in this subdirectory include.  I compile all the .wml
files in this directory with wml -Ibasedirectory.  But I get an infinite
include stack on sitedef.wmi, and wml eventually dies with an Out of memory
error.

Why?  This last sitedef.wmi *should* include the one in basedirectory, right?
