i know that the gentoo folk are now doing it differently
they used to have /usr/lib/bglibs/{include,lib} - which was obviously  
flawed

but the latest ebuilds split it up in /usr/lib/bglibs 
and /usr/include/bglibs - which tends to be my personal favorite 
also...

the FHS prohibits something like /usr/bglibs/ (AFAIK), which is why i 
personally dislike the /usr/local/bglibs/{include,lib} approach. feel 
free to enlighten me.

but this is no violent objection - just some food for thought and 
perhaps discussion.
