I've found the problem, and it's nothing to do with Inline.

The extra headers are needed in any case; there's no way for me to make the 
install completely easy...

My script just *happened* to be in the same directory as was necessary to 
make the extras available, ie the source dir of bow. I had forgotten about 
the implicit "." being in the included header dirs.

My bad.
