Would it be possible for you to regulate with which user are allowed to access which file? In such a case, if a user can't do fopen() on a certain php file, then this user wont be able to access the functionality in this file. A Q&D solution as to say. Anyhow, in my I ignorant view of what you have done, it might be an idea to review the design strategy of your project.
