I understand what you are doing, but it's not clear to me how you force the FD to search down a path stored in a system table for its INCLUDE file.

My complaint is that the FD does not appear to use the PATH to resolve file references. If that's true, how does having a path stored in a table help? How do you specify the INCLUDE file reference so that FD looks for it in the path specified by your system table?
