Includes and subdirectories

Is there a workaround or fix for the inability to include from
subdirectories yet?  I feel sure somebody must've found a way to do it, but I
must've missed it.

    What I mean, is that I've got my .ex program source in a directory, and
all the includes in a subdirectory, which works fine except that most of the
includes include each other and they're not resolved properly by the
interpretor.

--c:\dev\euphoria\projects\test.ex
include gui\all.e  --works

--c:\dev\euphoria\projects\gui\all.e
include dialog.e  --crashes with "can't open
                            --c:\dev\euphoria\include\dialog.e or
                            --c:\dev\euphoria\projects\dialog.e"
include gui\dialog.e  --seems to indicate that it should look in
                                   --c:\dev\euphoria\projects\gui\gui\, but
                                   --it doesn't, it looks in the right place,
however
                                   --dialog.e includes another one of the
files, so it
                                   --crashes anyway.  :/

     Of course, I can go through all 30 includes and resolve the pathnames
manually, but that seems to obliviate the purpose of using relative
pathnames...  OTOH, I could just dump all 352 .e files on my hard drive into
the EUDIR\Include directory, but besides the conflicts that'd just be messy.

frustrated that I must've overlooked something obvious...
