The headers will always be installed in the right place in
/usr/include: Makefile's are editable.  As far as kernel
compiles, symlinks can be created in the work directory as
one possible solution.  For example,
sys/compile/i386/GENERIC/netinet -> ../../../../net/inet.
This would most likely result in netinet _not_ being split
up.
