I don't want our headers to be polluted with unrelated stuff. Next thing
will be WANT_LINUX_ etc... Lets keep code bases separate, at least to
minimize diffs with other BSDs.

Your suggested way not reduces porter efforts, he needs to use 
-DWANT_GNU_REGEX_H, but in my case it is -I/usr/include/gnu - I see no 
gain here at all. Moreover, if we place more GNU headers under 
/usr/include/gnu, only single -I/usr/include/gnu is needed in my case and 
one-per-header -DWANT_GNU_<something>_H in yours.
