I move this thread from port-arm to tech-kern, because this is not arm
specific issue. Please remove port-arm on follow-up.

No.
/usr/include/arm/platform shouldn't exist,
And /usr/include/machine should point /usr/include/${MACHINE},
if arm ports follow the current NetBSD standard.
If you are thinking about directory hierarchy which are shareable
on same ${MACHINE_CPU}, you should use platform independent
mailing list rather than port-arm for the discussion.
I think arm ports should revive /usr/include/machine, at least until
consensus is made.
