That is an argument.
I thought the association would support the core development (and also its 
docs) financially...


To come back to the problem: The docs are correct by saying that it ONLY 
works correctly, if the code is directly(!) written in localconf.php.
Adding the code using include/require(_once)() in localconf only works when 
calling the page for the very first time.
After that, the condition does no longer work correctly.
Same with adding the code or an include/require(_once)() to extTables.php.

Using includeLibs in Typoscript does not work correctly either (although 
people think it would).

So writing it in localconf is the only way to get it work.
