[oe] Require versus include

Yesterday I did a stupid thing.

I included an .inc file in a recipe when I added a second version of the 
recipe. BUT, I misspelled the inc file name. The recipe would build 
without errors, but nothing was down.

This confused me for a while until I finally realized what an idiot I was.

Should I use require to include files in recipes instead? My 
understanding is include does not produce an error when the file is not 
found and require does.
