This is a question that a lot of people are probably interested in, but it's primarily 
directed at Frederic:

I'm getting a little tired of copying over picogui's headers to cli_c and themetools 
when i make changes, and when new client libraries are written (my current task is 
preparing the network code for this) the problem will only get worse.

PicoGUI's situation seems a bit like Linux and the kernel headers... there may be a 
better solution, but what I would propose is having a "make install" in pgserver 
install the headers from pgserver/include/picogui/*.h into /usr/local/include/picogui. 
Then, the client libs and theme tools would reference those headers. Extra headers for 
the specific client libs would be added in /usr/local/include and 
/usr/local/include/picogui when "make install" is run in cli_c.

The advantage of this method is that cli_c and themetools don't need a copy of 
pgserver's headers, only the new headers for cli_c. The disadvantage is that you have 
to install pgserver before you can build cli_c.
