Grant -

Can't put my hands on the documentation of interpolation order, but catalog 
and global variables are parsed before [prefix-*] lists, so one thing you 
could do is put the contents of the file into a catalog variable:

Variable MYSTUFF <<EOV
.... (ITL here)
EOV

...then you can just call it on the page in the normal manner:

[loop arg="foo bar"]
         ...
         __MYSTUFF__
         ...
[/loop]
