Do you realize that /usr/include/scsi belongs to glibc?

As far as I'm concerned (as glibc maintainer), if you make such changes, you deserve no support from me.

I am not interested in going back to the symlinks, there were far more bugs filed then about the kernel-headers-n.n.nn depends that libc6-dev had, than there have ever been about /usr/include/{asm,linux} being directories.

As for FHS, it is *wrong* plain and simple.
