Me neither. I'm only familiar with this particular issue because it's what 
we're hitting a lot recently.

I don't think libtirpc's include path is expected to be predictable by design. 
I think it's something distro maintainers have to choose to avoid collision 
with headers that (used to be) installed by glibc. In any case, I can't think 
of a better solution than pkg-config here (libtirpc doesn't come with CMake 
modules).

I can't see why not — I suppose most of cross-compilation environments already 
redefine pkg-config paths appropriately. Even if it wouldn't, this shouldn't 
cause a regression because the 'default' case (RPC headers sraight in default 
paths) is not affected, and libtirpc case never could have worked.

As for `no-defaultlibs`, that is only stripped for the purpose of 
`check_include_file` and is afterwards restored. I can't think of a reason it 
would fail with stripping, and it certainly fails for me if it's not stripped.
