Okay, guys, this may sound incredibly picky, but on my virtual server, I
learned one HAS to have the space after the comment tag before the
#include. So it really has to look like this:
         <!-- #include virtual="/full/web/path/to/include.inc" -->
You also (on my virtual server, anyway) have to have that space you
correctly show before the closing...    the     -->
