Enhancing autoconf to have a way of setting the default includes seems
reasonable - at the same time, I think we should work out which tests in
glibc's existing configure scripts (libc and ports) are actually using the
default includes at present, so as to understand what effect such a change
will have in glibc. (And we might also want to fix those configure tests
now to avoid whatever problems they cause, rather than waiting for an
enhanced autoconf release.)
