[SMARTY] Globally loading arrays: Best practice?

I've created an array to hold the structure for a website navigation.
Initially I would load this array via a "menu.inc" file in the PHP file that
calls the SMARTY template like this:
<?php
...
require('menu.inc');
...
?>
This however produces a sideeffect that sends IE into quirksmode - a newline
is added to the beginning of all output pages like this:
--- begin ---
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="de">
<head>
<title>Testpage</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="navigation">
</div>
</body>
</html>
--- end ---
To verify the "require('menu.inc');" causes the problem, I've included the
contents of "menu.inc" into my "test.php" file and bingo! the newline at the
beginning of the output is gone.
Now I am looking for a convenient way to do this globally. I thought of doing
this with {config_load file="menu.conf"}, but I am not sure what syntax to use
if I want to add an array as variable.
Reading the docs I guess I should use "triple quotes (""")", but I thought I'd
ask here first, before I spend a few hours on something that cannot be done
the way I think or might be done in a much better way.
Any tipps or hints?
TIA,
