This is not entirely true.  This would assume that the package for the
user's distribution puts the headers into /usr/include and the libs into
/usr/lib.  Also, not all users use packages.  I know the default install
location when buildling subversion from source puts the libraries into
multiple different paths in /usr/local (there are about 16 different
libraries that are needed including the apr libraries).
