portaudio files (libportaudio*, pa_*) should definitely _not_ be 
installed by any pd package.
you should try to use your system's portaudio, rather than the one Pd 
comes with.

as for Pd's include file(s):
install to /usr/include/<pdflavour>/
/usr/include/m_pd.h may (probably should) be kept for compat reasons, 
and i think that it should belong to pd-vanilla.
(but then: afaik m_pd.h from pd-vanilla and pd-extended don't differ in 
any practical sense; with pd-l2ork this might be different)
