This is triggered by the rule in Makerules:

$(inst_includedir)/%.h: $(..)include/%.h $(+force)
  $(do-install)

Since no files under include/ should be installed, remove it from
Makerules.

Tested it on x86-64.  There are no differences in the installed header
files.

I stumbled on this for my clang/glibc branch [1] and I was puzzled why this
rule was initially added (I couldn't find it on git history nor it seems
obvious why).

LGTM, thanks.  Although It would be good to know why if was required
in first place.

include/features.h is an installed header.

It is a special case handled in Makefile by

headers := limits.h values.h features.h features-time64.h gnu-versions.h \
           bits/xopen_lim.h gnu/libc-version.h stdc-predef.h \
           bits/libc-header-start.h

There is no special case.

Header files under include aren't installed via Makefiles in
subdirectories.  The following header files are installed by
top level Makefile:

eaders := limits.h values.h features.h features-time64.h gnu-versions.h \
           bits/xopen_lim.h gnu/libc-version.h stdc-predef.h \
           bits/libc-header-start.h

echo-headers: subdir_echo-headers

# The headers are in the include directory.
subdir-dirs = include
vpath %.h $(subdir-dirs)
