As far as autoconf is concerned, I don't see any problem with such a solution.
Let me propose this approach:

We take the GLU header files out of include/GL/.

We make seperate subdirs for them in their respective GLU source directory.
For instance si-glu/syshdrs/GL/ and src-glu/syshdrs/GL/.

Because we cannot assume the two sets of GLU system headers to be identical,
provide two distinct install mechanisms for each of them. In the case of
autoconf/automake I would list them in glinclude_HEADERS in the approrpiate
Makefile.am's.

In order to use them at build time it's probably easiest to copy the
appropriate set into include/GL.
