I do not think so. The raw data is:

 https://ftp.rtems.org/pub/rtems/people/chrisj/includes-move/inc-list.txt

I have not filtered the file to remove duplicates or other data so it is clear
what is happening. The missing piece of information is the directory base per
preinstall record, eg

preinstall,$(PROJECT_INCLUDE)/bsp/bootcard.h,../../shared/include/bootcard.h

Without that detail it is difficult to normalise the path in the source tree to
a specific file. I will add support to get that data soon. It is not difficult,
I just have no unfunded time this week.

Then you have:

preinstall,$(PROJECT_INCLUDE)/wd80x3.h,$(srcdir)/../../i386/pc386/include/wd80x3.h

preinstall,$(PROJECT_INCLUDE)/mvme16x_hw.h,$(top_srcdir)/../shared/mvme/mvme16x_hw.h

You cannot trust $(srcdir) or $(top_srcdir) to be what you think they are. In my
view $(top_srcdir) is a pretty serious hack because it is defined differently in
different places and so you see varying numbers of '../' to get places. All
these paths need to be normalised.

Back porting BSP fixes is also important. I would like to get a clear understand
before we decide anything.

Someone needs to look at the Ada pieces at the end of the dump.
