	Well, one may script this -- there are scripts out there that
 can print a recursive tree of included dependencies (unfortunately,
 most scripts do not deal well with cpp conditionals); one just needs
 grab ths list of headers, and then do a dpkg -S on them. Not likely
 to be fast, but it'll work.
