I think we're shifting topic here from recursive include to multiple
include. The latter is general practice.

The OP is unintentional infinite recursive includes, and whether LP can
help signalling this instead of just becoming non-responsive.

Maybe it is possible to track include depth, and issue a (one) warning when
the include dept exceeds a certain threshold (20? 50? 100?).
