Theme's functions.php needs to be include_once()'d

Description

Before WP 2.0 came out, people were already bundling functions.php with some of their themes, and including it at the top of header.php or something like that. They get function redefined errors in WP 2.x because WP calls functions.php automatically.

WP should include_once() the theme's functions.php file to avoid this.

Wouldn't help if the theme authors didn't use include_once, right?

bah, you're right. And if they include_once(), then it doesn't matter whether we _once or not... for some reason I was thinking that include_once() would prevent future include()s, not true. ... back you your regularly scheduled programming.
