That does work for me. (to be precise, using include
"../subfolder/xxx.irev"
(I didn't have a folder called 'includes', but had one imaginatively
called 'subfolder' :-)
(Sadly, I can't get the equivalent to work for an add-on domain at the
root level, but that's not too surprising).

Why would you get an FTP error ? Are you sure this was while running
index.irev ?
Or is there some other part of your workflow that is doing ftp of these
files ?
Is the error message from the on-rev client debugger ? If not - give it
a try and see what it says.
