currently we have #include "mannequin.inc"

how about

#from "mannequin.inc" include Hand

or even

#from "mannequin.inc" include Hand #as MyHand

in the last case you could make a fast hardcopy of the macro / function 
/ object and still be able to modify the original Hand of mannequin.inc 
and and (re)use that in you scene using "#from "mannequin.inc" include 
Hand"

... to that add namespaces to avoid collisions and do,
#include "mannequin.inc"
mannequin.Hand( , , )

but then we are realy into POV4.0
