Description of problem:
I found out that the httpd process that has once read php variables 
from a .htaccess file, in my case the following: 

php_value 
include_path ".:/var/www/donjohnsonbigband.com/php/:/var/www/donjohnso
nbigband.com"

in my php.ini the initial value is:

include_path = ".:/usr/local/php";

Now, I ran into a problem that's hard to fix with any workaround; it 
seems to me, that the httpd process, once been to the directory with 
that particular .htaccess file, will have the php module remember the 
value, and not reset it back to the one in php.ini. This causes other 
pages to bug randomly (apparently if they are served by process(es) 
visited that directory).

I'm not sure if this is the actual thing that happens, but the 
include_path is randomly wrong.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
httpd-2.0.47-10
php-4.3.3-6

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. make a .htaccess file modify the include_path
2. request a php page from the directory with the .htaccess file
3. repeat requests to php pages in other directories that try to 
require a file that should be found in a directory defined in php.ini
  
Actual results:
some requests to the php pages in step 3 fail

Expected results:
all requests should work
