It is told, by the master. The path is passed through the variable master()->include_prefix, which is initialized to the value of ¤include_prefix¤ when master.pike is generated from master.pike.in. So as you can see, it's fully configurable.

Pike looks for the includes where it installs them. If Debian wants them installed somewhere else, it's their job to make sure Pike looks there instead. Pike can't be clairvoyant about these things.

Fix the build system then. It should be flexible enough to be told where the includes are.
