	Though Sather does not do this, it would be easy at the
language level to define a form of code inclusion that avoids this
problem - there have been proposals to this effect- by providing the
sort of encapsulated code inclusion that you get in Java. Since code
inclusion is essentially a syntactic operation, new forms of code
inclusion do not really impact other aspects of the language - they
can be viewed as different kinds of macro operators.  IMHO, this
encapsulated form of code inclusion should actually be the default,
though the current, looser version should still be possible.
