You could install them all into /usr/include/arch and make all the machine/*.h 
files look like:

#include "arch/" # MACHINE # "/foo.h"

which could be generated from a master list or globular expansion of 
arch/*/include (just to get the list, any individual arch/machine would be free 
to not worry about them). OF course, this solved the installed problem, and not 
the symlinks created by config(1), but I'm guessing that's not quite so 
irritating...
