Comment (by beng):

 All,

 I see, sorry everyone, I wasn't aware of this problem.

 and creating these problems.

 As I see it, gpio.h is generic to BSPs (it describes a BSP-generic API)
 and so ought to be safe to install unconditionally.

 Installing it only whenever BSPs implement the API isn't perfect either,
 as that precludes that BSP from having an installed gpio.h should they
 want it.

 Can we install it unconditionally in a path that is safe from BSP-specific
 clashes?
