22 Really the only need to storing include files in their own subdir is
23 for collision avoidance -- ie, if they're part of SDKs or whatnot that
24 may have multiple versions installed at a time (not necessarily
25 meaning the packages are slotted but rather upstream intends it to be
26 possible)

28 Besides, technically this is only one header per library.
