Nice, but unfortunately I given that this is code in Jambase I can only use
builtins. Also "." and "/.." ar not platform independent, and the $(DOT) and
$(DOTDOT) var aren't defined at this point. Although here is a slightly better
one than mine, removing the "if" as you did:

local d_ = $(PWD) ;
while ($(d_) != $(d_:P))
{
PROJECT_CONFIG_PATH += $(d_) ;
d_ = $(d_:P) ;
}
SEARCH on $(PROJECT_CONFIG) : $(PROJECT_CONFIG_PATH) ;
include $(PROJECT_CONFIG) ;

Not so different from yours :-)
