This looks pretty good.

I want to note that LIBDIR should be relocated at runtime.

This define isn't ok, because the including source code might be C.
You can just make two separate defines, one for C and one for C++.

Put the version first.  That gives maximum freedom for rearranging the
structure in future versions.
