Not that I'm aware of.  Typically, if header files are structured like
this, the easy way to handle includes is in the sources:

 #include <Core/System/System.h>

However, if the PalmOS headers themselves don't do this, then you need
to include all of the directory paths for gcc to search.  A little use
of Makefile variables can make it easier to manage.  Who cares if it
looks ugly on the command line when compiling?

PALM_INCDIR = /usr/m68k-palmos-coff/include/PalmOS

PALM_CORE_INC = "$PALM_INCDIR/Core"
