This table is used for deriving the language from the compilation
unit's main source file.  Unless people compile .inc files separately,
.inc shouldn't appear here.

If you remove .inc from the list, and then discover you have problems,
please let us know.

This change is approved, assuming Mark's and my suggestions are
followed.
