[-- Attachment #1 --] I was looking int https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=254173 recently and realised that packaging for include files is messed up. For instance, <stdio.h> lives in runtime-dev but it includes <xlocale/_stdio.h> which is in utilities-dev. The clibs-dev package containers C++ header files, most of which cannot work without the standard C includes from runtime-dev. Looking closer, include files from src/include are in runtime but subdirectories of src/include don't have PACKAGE set, to drop into utilities by default. This is all too confusing. I think we should put all the includes from src/include and subdirectories as well as the C++ standard includes into the same package and I think that package should be clibs-dev since none of it is much use without the libs contained in clibs-dev.
