The way I modify the INCLUDE_PATH on each request is like:

  # set the template include path for this request
  $tt->service->context->load_templates->[0]->include_path($include_path);

$include_path is an array ref of directories based on information specific
to each request.  I only work on the first element of load_templates
because I am not doing any tricky template provider magic when setting up
my template toolkit object.

Hope this helps,
