Hi Andrea, The PHP stuff sounds great.  It is has been unfortunate that 
the version in cedet/contrib hasn't been usable.

The magic you need is `semantic-tag-include-filename', which appears to 
be in lisp/cedet/semantic/java.el.

This converts the string in the tag into a file name.  Without it, the 
includes infrastructure just trys to use it directly.

I hope this helps.
Eric
