You are right but this shouldn't influence your package. It's a problem
in the gcc configuration. IMO this should be changed in gcc but not
result in changing the package scheme.
BTW: I don't have that problem since I have set the environment
variables C_INCLUDE_PATH and CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH to /usr/local/include.
