What's not robust about them? The only issue I see with this approach,  
is that you shouldn't load IMP's backend configuration from Gollem. If  
you are only after $rv_auth, put that into a separate file that you  
load from both backend.local.php files. And you probably want to cache  
the result, so that it's only called once during the complete Horde  
session.
