well, instead of adding -I$(srcdir)/gllib, I symlink (shudder!!!) the
necessary headers into -I$(builddir):
in makemake.in:

GLLIB_MODULE_HEADERS="regex.h"
for f in localcharset.h ${GLLIB_MODULE_HEADERS} ${UNICODE_EXTRA}; do
  link_dep "${f}" `find ${SRCDIR}gllib/ -name ${f}`
done

which results in

regex.h : ../src/gllib/regex.h
        -$(RM) regex.h
        -$(LN_S) ../src/gllib/regex.h regex.h

streq.h : ../src/gllib/streq.h
        -$(RM) streq.h
        -$(LN_S) ../src/gllib/streq.h streq.h

cjk.h : ../src/gllib/uniwidth/cjk.h
        -$(RM) cjk.h
        -$(LN_S) ../src/gllib/uniwidth/cjk.h cjk.h

uninames.h : ../src/gllib/uniname/uninames.h
        -$(RM) uninames.h
        -$(LN_S) ../src/gllib/uniname/uninames.h uninames.h

the reason I cannot do -I$(srcdir)/gllib is clear: it will not catch
uninames.h & cjk.h.
on the other hand, it does not look like streq.h, uninames.h and cjk.h
are included in any clisp sources (only in gnulib).

so, I guess TRT is to remove the linking and add -I$(srcdir)/gllib to CPPFLAGS..
