yes. but the way that synce handles things is also not completely
correct. if the --with-rra switch adds the ${includedir}/rra dir to the
included directories _and_ the #include commands search for a rra/ again
the switch wont work correctly.

I think the correct way is to do it like this:

rra and synce get installed into a directory ${includedir}/rra-$version/r=
ra

this way its possible to use the rra/ prefix in the #include statement
(which works also a sort of a namespace so includes dont overlap) but it
is also possible to install several versions separately.
