   Sure it works, but it defeats the point. The reason to have the "oslib/" 
things everywhere is to avoid collisions with other names. People want to 
have the OSLib "os.h" *and* one from another library, at the same time. 
Clearly, the library headers have to include the disambiguated name, 'coz 
we don't want OSLib's "wimp.h" picking the "os.h" from a different library.

   Nice to hear you tried it, and it works, though.
