That's nothing new, it's been like that a long time. I don't think
anyone thinks its a great solution, but it works. It was more born
out of politics than any technical concern, but I think those
politics have mostly subsided.
If you can do it better, I invite you to make a better system. Some
of us here have outlined an autoconf-based system, but that's not
essential. I could see a pkgconfig/makefile system perhaps.

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess
himself of it. - Thomas Jefferson
