An 'include' directory is automatically created inside INSTALL_HDR_PATH and
headers are installed in 'INSTALL_HDR_PATH/include'.
-The command "make headers_install_all" exports headers for all architectures
-simultaneously. (This is mostly of interest to distribution maintainers,
-who create an architecture-independent tarball from the resulting include
-directory.) You also can use HDR_ARCH_LIST to specify list of architectures.
-Remember to provide the appropriate linux/asm directory via "mv" or "ln -s"
-before building a C library with headers exported this way.

The archheaders: rule is used to generate header files that
- may be installed into user space by "make header_install" or
- "make headers_install_all". In order to support
- "make headers_install_all", this target has to be able to run
- on an unconfigured tree, or a tree configured for another
- architecture.
+ may be installed into user space by "make header_install".
It is run before "make archprepare" when run on the
architecture itself.
