Hmm, that's preceise, but I don't think an average user necessarily
knows what the C locale is. I think I'll go with:
Multiple files within an include directory are processed in filename
order. The filenames are ordered by C locale rules, ie. numbers before
letters, and uppercase letters before lowercase ones.
