I should have them available and then the related code requires to have constant from C header files, which I can't (easily) figure out where they are (h2ph doesn't work properly

It's quite possible that I underestimate the complexity of the problem.
1) Can't the PL file that generates the module place it in blib (creating the 'blib' directory if it's not already existent)?
2) If the C header files are not found by default, then surely it's up to the user to make them locatable - eg by setting the relevant environment variable, or providing INC arg to Makefile.PL.

Cheers,
Rob
