What about the following idea:
Place all bitmaps in /usr/share/bitmaps and all pixmaps in
/usr/share/pixmaps and make /usr/X11R6/include/X11/{bitmaps|pixmaps}
symlinks on them.

This won't break sources, which use "#include <X11/*maps/*.x?m>" and
it is a much more intuitive place for icons which are used by a window
manager (for example using the menu package) or something like this.
