Great. :)

I think that needs to be done with most packages. For example, many only look in /usr/include and not any subdirectories. With the little I have browsed cmake files, I think cmake can be configured for that. I don't know about automake. Not finding header files in a subdirectory seems to be a common building bug. Automake has the --with-extra-includes option, but find header files should be automatic. Likewise with cmake. :)
