Just tested this with latest CVS and seems like
the -d include_path=.:/path/to/foo is totally ignored
and only setting include_path in php.ini works.

php built as cgi :
./configure --prefix=/usr
--with-config-file-path=/etc/php
--enable-force-cgi-redirect
--without-pcre-regex
--enable-debug=no
--enable-safe-mode

$grep include_path /etc/php/php.ini
include_path = .
$ls include/me.inc
include/me.inc
$php -q -d include_path=.:include
<?php
include ('me.inc');
?>
^D
<b>Warning</b>: Failed opening 'me.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.') in <b>-</b> on line <b>2</b><br>

I had a look at the code in sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c,
php_ini.c as well as configuration-parser.y.
configuration-parser.y and cgi_main.c. They all call
php_ini.c/php_alter_ini_entry. It's called a first
time from configuration-parser with '.' coming
from /etc/php/php.ini and then called from
the command-line "analyser" (/sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c)
Because the value is already set, the first test in
alter_ini_entry fails and returns (php_ini.c:143) :
if (zend_hash_find(&known_directives, name, name_length, (void **) &ini_entry)==FAILURE) {
                return FAILURE;
        }

I use the cgi version in command line for some cron scripts
related to a whole web-based application, that's the reason
why I need this.

The workaround I've found ?
Have php.ini in the directory the scripts are in with
the variables correctly set in it. :-(((

BTW, have a look at this (shell related) one :

$cat ./script.php
#!/usr/bin/php -q -d include_path=foo
<?php
echo "Hello World";
?> 

---
Depending on wich shell you run it from, php receives
"php" "-q -d include_path=foo" "./script.php" (linux)
"php" "-q" "./script.php" (solaris)
as argv, leading to problems...

Solution ? Ahem... Nasty one :
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/php -q -d include_path=foo <<EOF
<?php
echo "Hello World";
?>
EOF
