I'm not familiar with Linux/Apache, but if they run as Windows/IIS
pair, then I'm afraid that "php.ini" would be shared among all developers
hosting on a single server and my include dir would expose its
contents to other app-s. Though below may be another workaround:
<?php
ini_set('include_dir', '....');
include('blahblahblah');
?>
