What about taking the files needed by tix from the tk distribution and
put them in tix/patches or tix/files? Then you just need to add a -I
directive in the makefile so that tix can compile. That way the
usr/local/include directory remains clean. As long as we don't have
100 ports requiring each 100kb of include files I don't see any
problem.
