I don't see the necessity for this. It opens up all sorts of potential bugs.
This would be the proper method of forward referencing (which I use frequently).

integer r_Func2

function Func1( integer i )
    return call_func( r_Func2, {2} )
end function

function Func2( integer i )
    return i * 2
end function
r_Func2 = routine_id("Func2")

Could you post an example of how you could better implement the includes with 
the bug reintrocuced?
