 I don't know how do packagers handle this with the other libraries
supporting both autotools and CMake (we can't be the only ones, right?).

 I don't know, sorry. I guess the simplest way would be to use CMake to
just generate the required files and then install them?

 This looks like a bug in CMake install, it really shouldn't install all
these headers, especially the private ones.
