Here’s how I solved this issue (assumes shell access):
1. create a new group:
$ addgroup wp-theme-editor
2. change the group of the theme files and make them group writable:
$ cd <theme-directory>
$ chgrp wp-theme-editor *
$ chmod g+w *
3. add apache user into the new group:
$ usermod -a -G wp-theme-editor www-data
4. restart apache (otherwise the apache process doesn’t knows that it’s it in the new group)
$ /etc/init.d/apache restart

Using parentheses with require_once is optional.

Hm, a code sample might better illustrate my question.

Here’s an abbreviated bit of the template:

<?php require_once 'fooversion.inc.php'; ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php edit_post_link('Edit this entry.' . get_foo_version(), '<p>', '</p>'); ?>

and then the page appears (ignoring the sidebar):
header
content part
content part
Edit this entry 1.2.3

So I can make the version number appear in the post link. But I want the version number to appear inside the page content like this:
header
content part
Version 1.2.3
content part
Edit this entry

In other words, I want the version number to appear within the page content and this is where I get stuck.

I am getting the feeling that the only way to get this version number into the page content is with a php plugin or at least something like the Enzymes plugin.

I’ve got a page where I want a frequently-changing version number to appear. I’ve created a page template and I can get at the version number in the template using require_once, but I’m stumped re: how to get this version number from the page template into the page content.

If using a php plugin is the right way to do it then fine, just thought I’d ask if there was a better way.
