Well, I found a set of systems that install libedit (and editline) in that
location (i.e. Debian Linux). I couldn't test on the standard version of
that system without either this, or hacking a symlink into /usr/include.

Yes, BSD systems that install libedit directly in /usr/include (or into
readline), like Patrick's, don't need it, but mine do. Is there some
reason we _shouldn't_ support this configuration?
