That's a good point.  Then, I'd recommend that we install files to a
more private location than to /usr/include and /usr/lib.  Perhaps
to /usr/include/notify, /usr/lib/notify, etc.  We possibly wouldn't
want to install the .pc files and instead hack the configure files
that might be looking for pc files to just know that they can build
with these modules installed to whatever location we install them.
