Supposing you put this in your config.php:

  $foo = "bar";

In themes/<yourtheme>/theme.inc edit the showAlbumPage() function and add this:

  $theme =& $template->getVariableByReference('theme');
  global $foo;
  $theme['foo'] = $foo;

That passes the value to the template. Then in the template you can do this:

  {$theme.foo}

to get your value.
