Having worked long times with autotools the path order seems under less 
control. I wonder always what the gcc ilne will be in the end. So if one 
version appears under /usr/include/FL/... it will probably be choosen, 
regardless if this was a packagers intention in the first place.

That would generally be good to deploy.

Distribution means almost a /usr/lib /usr/include combo box. So two FLTK's 
installing into one include path wont work.
