  Or if we want to keep it as ""-include, provide '-I-' in compiler 
command line. It does disable including from "current directory". 
Problem is that this is not only effect it has, it also prevents '-I' 
-options earlier in command line from affecting <>-includes. So it might 
take some thinking to decide where in the command line it should be, do 
we want to provide any includes only through ""-includes? That could be 
used to dictate that project specific files must be included using ""-style.
