You can do something like this:

    def to_html( template )
	template = @site.assets_dir + "templates/" + template + ".rhtml"

	code = "page=self; site=page.site;\n"
	File.open( template, "r" ) { |file|
	    compiler = ERuby::Compiler.new
	    code += compiler.compile_file(file)
	}
	

	io = MockIO.new
	$defout = io

	eval( code )

	$defout = $stdout

	io.read
    end

MockIO can be a StringIO if you're using 1.7(?), or something that you
roll together yourself.  Not exactly an include, but kinda serves a
similar purpose.
