I have thought a number of times about adding #include using the same
semantics as the CPP but it was never a high priority.

It is accessable in the sense that it would have to be referenced
using foo->fun.

I suspect that there may be a larger problem you are trying to solve
and that using "#include" is just one mechanism to deal with it.  If
so, what is the larger problem?
