-When this directive is encountered parsing switches to the included file
-immediately. As a result the included file can be comprised of any valid
-mapfile syntax. For example:
-
-.. code-block:: mapfile
-
-    INCLUDE 'myLayer.map'
-
-Performance does not seem to be seriously impacted with limited use, however
-in high performance instances you may want to use includes in a pre-processing
-step to build a production mapfile. The C pre-processor can also be used
-(albeit with a different syntax) and is far more powerful.
-
-Notes
------
-
-- Supported in versions 4.10 and higher.
-
-- The name of the file to be included **MUST be quoted** (single or
-  double quotes).
-
-- Includes may be nested, up to 5 deep.
-
-- File location can be given as a full path to the file, or (in MapServer >=
-  4.10.1) as a path relative to the mapfile.
-
-- Debugging can be problematic because: 
-
-  1) the file an error occurs in does not get output to the user
-
-  2) the line number counter is not reset for each file. Here is one possible
-     error that is thrown when the include file cannot be found:
-
-     ::
-
-          msyylex(): Unable to access file. Error opening included file "parks_include.map"

- 
-       INCLUDE "test_include_symbols.map"

-and test_include_layer.map contains:
-
