this indeed work for _apps_.
but I assume you don't want to have a config file per library !
and for those, some __FILE__ magic is really the best you can do.
It's used (e.g.) by smarty. and since the only file you should include
while using smarty is /usr/share/php/smarty/libs/Smarty.class.php (I
didn't really understood _why_ it's in libs/ ...), smarty has a
define('SMARTY_DIR', dirname(__FILE__));
on the top of it.
and all the others files of the library use that magic.
the thing is, for smarty, you allways include Smarty.class.php.
but for more general libs, where there is more include files, and there
is no preferred include for the programmer, you have to put
dirname(__FILE__) everywhere.
