Hola!
Thank you for considering this small patch and for your fast reply!

That's correct, my mistake. I should of just written /usr/local/
instead.

Sorry, I might not have been clear enough with my mail. My objective is
to respect OpenBSD's and FreeBSD's hierarchy as documented in their
hier(7) manual.

I do not think so as on FreeBSD and OpenBSD, /usr/local/ is for non
system libraries, programs and files.
The default compiler on FreeBSD is clang and here is the internal path
lookup :
$ cc -print-search-dirs
programs: =/usr/bin
libraries: =/usr/lib/clang/16:/usr/lib
The same goes for gcc :
$ gcc -print-search-dirs
install: /usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/
programs:
=/usr/local/libexec/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/libexec/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/libexec/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../../../x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/bin/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../../../x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/bin/
libraries:
=/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../../../x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/lib/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../../../x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/lib/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/local/lib/gcc13/gcc/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/../../../:/lib/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/lib/:/usr/lib/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/13.2.0/:/usr/lib/
If this is correct, users should manually include /usr/local/lib.
Here is the pertinent FreeBSD hier(7) entry
---
/usr/ contains the majority of user utilities and applications
[...]
include/ standard C include files
lib/ shared and archive ar(1)-type libraries
[...]
local/ local executables, libraries, etc. Also used
as the default destination for the ports(7)
framework. Within local/, the general layout
sketched out by hier for /usr should be used.
Exceptions are the ports documentation (in
share/doc/<port>/), and /usr/local/etc (mimics
/etc).

(https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=hier)
And here is the pertinent OpenBSD hier(7) entry
---
/usr/
Contains the majority of user utilities and applications.
[...]
include/
Standard C include files.
[...]
lib/
System libraries. See intro(3) for a description of
library types.
[...]
local/
Local executables, libraries, etc.

But, I might be mistaken if there is another way to see the system
compiler internal path lookup.

Yes, this should be good for the BSDs. Although X11LIB and X11INC
should still be added for FreeBSD and NetBSD.
FreeBSD's X11LIB is /usr/local/lib (/usr/loca/lib/X11)
FreeBSD's X11INC is /usr/local/include (/usr/local/include/X11/)
As I only use OpenBSD and FreeBSD, I have never tried any suckless
software on NetBSD, but after looking through its hier(7) manual, it
does seem to differ as well.
NetBSD's hier(7) does not seem to use /usr/X11R6/ nor /usr/local/.
---
/usr/ Contains the majority of the system utilities and files.
X11R7/ X11 files (for X11 revision 7).
----
(https://man.netbsd.org/hier.7)
So, given the hier(7) man page :
NetBSD's X11LIB might be /usr/X11R7/lib
NetBSD's X11INC might be /usr/X11R7/include
I can try it and confirm it.
OpenBSD should be ok without redefining X11LIB and X11INC as it does
use /usr/X11R6/ and I remember some discussion about no interest in
renaming X11R6 to X11R7.
---
/usr/
Contains the majority of user utilities and applications.
X11R6/
Files required for the X11 window system.
[...]
include/
X11-specific C include files.
lib/
X11 archive libraries.

Sorry for the long email, I did not think that it would be so long.
Let me know what you think :)
