E.g. linux phones. I think a device that > boots a kernel has a file system and that should have a /usr/include. Maybe you should check your facts before you post stuff like this. I just opened the console of my android smartphone (linux based !) and I was not surprised that there are no include files on the device. Include files are necessary to COMPILE code... not to run it. They are a waste of space on embedded linux systems, because you don't have a compiler on them. Noone creating a sane distribution for an embedded linux system would add an include file to it. I would bet that neither a windows smartphone, nor a webos palm one, nor an iphone has any include header files on it's flash. Unless the user installed it afterwards.
