"include" forces you to explicitly list the files that are included.
"directory" will automatically include all files in the directory.

"--dump-config" dumps the parsed output of the config files, but
the line-numbers are from the un-parsed file (e.g. the line number
also includes comment-lines which --dump-config ignores). So you
should match the line number against the output from
   bbcmd bbhostshow ~xymon/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg

I should probably consider adding the line-number to the --dump-config
output.
