mudflap is an offender as well, see Bugzilla #18244 (libmudflap
installs include/mf-runtime.h in version-independent path).
Java has libdata/pkgconfig/libgcj.pc and include/ffi.h.
And, like the man pages, the info files do not honor --program-suffix,
but for regular C, C++, Objective-C and Fortran development neither of
is a real killer, agreed.
