I think the same may be true for /usr/include/xview, or are the xview
sources dependent on themselves?

This seems to be a problem in imake/Imake.{tmpl,rules} rather then
XView.  The -I/usr/include is added when you use -DUseInstalled but
I think that this is a mistake in implementation.  Don't you think
that the rules should be set up so that -I/usr/include is the *last*
-I directive on the command line, rather than the first?  This problem
is going to hit every toolkit that is constructed in such a fashion
(i.e., you are building >1 library and the later builds are dependent
on #include's from previous builds).
