import(P) The library and visible sources of package P are available to satisfy IMPORT requests in the current compilation. The imported sources are not recompiled.
include_dir(D) recursively include the sources named in the m3makefile in subdirectory D of the current directory.
include_pkg(P) include the sources named in package P's src/m3makefile. The location of P may be overridden (see section \ref{OVER-sec}).
Import reflects the fact that programs are built from separately compiled pieces, rather than being compiled as a whole. If we always compiled from source, include would suffice.
