Cannot %include in CentOS 5.5 kickstart

I've previously used includes in CentOS 4.4 and they worked fine.

But in CentOS 5.5, trying to specify a driver disk via an include
does not work.

If I instead specify it directly, it loads fine.

When it fails (because it can't see the disk drive - needs the
driver disk to see the hard disk), in Console 2 I can see that
/tmp/drvdisk exists and has the line I wrote to it.  I see
nothing that looks wrong in any log or kickstart file/fragment in
/tmp.

Any ideas? Here's my complete kickstart to show/test this:
