# The configure.ac check for libgd and its headers did not use $SYSINCLUDES.
# The directory specified by --with-headers usually contains only the basic
# kernel interface headers, not something like libgd. So the simplest thing
# is to presume that the standard system headers will be ok for this file.
$(objpfx)memusagestat.o: sysincludes = # nothing
