error 500 while enabling REQUIRES

Just to clarify...

As of 4.8, REQUIRES does work for all layer types, but doesn't support the [rasters] tag anymore.
I was not able to come up with a robust and fast method for implementing that tag- the recursion 
possibilities made my head hurt...

REQUIRES doesn't work on layers with NAME or GROUP (named or grouped
layers) between 4.2 and 4.8 - see bug #1283:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1283 

At 4.8 (and beyond?), REQUIRES still will not work for rasters.
