first line of log.inc.php is as quoted, i.e.:

    include_once( "$SKIN_URL/php/logdisplay.inc.php" );


A QUICK glance at the code suggests that there MIGHT be vectors that
are independent of register_globals (as the variable name suggests,
which is why I investigated this in the first place).  For example, in
functions.inc.php, $SKIN_URL might be populated from per-user records
in a database, although how that field is inserted into the database
isn't immediately clear.
