I agree that its not a nice way to do things, and I'd certainly avoid it,
but having said that I have had to use it (I can't remember the exact reason
why right now, but it was a good enough reason at the time for me to
overcome my natural dislike for the idea).

Out of curiosity, if the i_am_embedded() function definition is moved out to
a second file and include_once'd instead (at the same point in test()), does
that work? That might at least be a workaround if it does.

You are correct.
