Has the time come to get rid of the "delivering" step for public
headers? I.e. for a header <MODULE/BAR.hxx>, instead of having it in
MODULE/inc/MODULE/BAR.hxx and then copying it to
solver/INPATH/inc/MODULE/BAR.hxx as part of the "make" of MODULE, it
could be directly in a new top-level "inc" directory, in
inc/MODULE/BAR.hxx all the time. (Obviously -I$(SRC_ROOT)/inc would
have to be added to the compilation flags.)


I see no technical reason against it, but I wouldn't like it because
then the headers belonging to a module wouldn't be located in the module
anymore. Actions performed on a module would need to take that
additional inc path into account, for example grep, module local tags
and ID databases, and maybe more. Doxygen?
