This should preserve the semantics > of what "symlinks" is about. >=20 The original purpose of "symlinks" was to provide symlinks to /sys sources, it's the so-called "developer's mode", so one doesn't need to worry about if he changes/adds/deletes a header. We could create /usr/include/contrib/ipfilter/netinet, and that will be consistent with kern.pre.mk. Those that need it would just add -I/usr/include/contrib/ipfilter. How is this?
