Yes, that's outside.

If phpinfo() says:
/home/myname/dir/

then these are bad:

/home/myname/dir/foo.inc
/home/myname/dir/includes/foo.inc
/home/myname/dir/as/deep/as/you/want/foo.inc

and these are okay:

/home/myname/includes/foo.inc
/home/myname/includes/as/deep/as/you/want/foo.inc
/any/other/random/directory/foo.inc

Of course, you now have the challenge of configuring 'include_path' in
php.ini to have all the paths you need :-)
