include directive not allowed within upstream context

nginx -V: nginx version: nginx/1.7.3

Description

​http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#include states that the include directive is allowed in any context, however the following fails:

upstream rpc_proxy {

server unix:/var/run/rpc.http.sock;
include rpc_proxy.backends;

}

[emerg] "include" directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/rpc_proxy.conf:3

Having this working would be very useful for separation of configuration between packaged (static) config and user defined. In my case the primary backend is a unix socket, alternate backends may be configured by the user if the local service is failed.

The intent was for unix:/var/run/rpc.http.sock to be defined in a file that can be replaced by RPM on update, where rpc_proxy.backends would not be replaced by any updates and may contain additional remote servers defined by the system administrator.

In 6305:18428f775b2c/nginx:

Core: enabled "include" inside http upstreams (ticket #635).

The directive already works inside stream upstream blocks.
