No. A missing '#include' file will not cause pbx_config.so to fail to 
load. pbx_config.so has to be loaded since IT reads extensions.conf and 
any subsequent included files. Similarly, garbage in extensions.conf does 
not affect the loading of pbx_config.so because it is already loaded.

If pbx_config.so is not being loaded, look at modules.conf for clues -- 
specifically, autoload and noload.

Since you loaded pbx_config.so 'by hand,' it will 'go away' the next time 
Asterisk is restarted.
