Why reinvent a way of doing it.  Put the thing in sys somewhere
(sys/geom) and use a reachover Makefile like cam does (simplified from
the actual Makefile a little):

LIB=		cam
SRCS=		camlib.c scsi_cmdparse.c scsi_all.c scsi_da.c scsi_sa.c cam.c
INCS=		camlib.h

.PATH:		${.CURDIR}/../../sys/cam/scsi ${.CURDIR}/../../sys/cam

SDIR=		${.CURDIR}/../../sys
CFLAGS+=	-I${.CURDIR} -I${SDIR}

.include <bsd.lib.mk>

just have libdisk do the same thing.
