no, that'd be incorrect for several reasons. first, the rule to use <...> vs. 
"..."
include directives is not about the header being in the same directory but 
whether
the header is a system header or one provided by the given program. roughly 
speaking,
system headers are those that are available through the compiler's default 
include
paths (gcc's own headers, those of glibc and other libraries under 
/usr/include, etc).
gcc plugin headers are *not* available by default, one has to query the 
compiler about
their path (see -print-file-name=plugin above) and explicitly add it to the 
compiler's
include search path.

second, regardless of whether plugin headers are available by default or not, we
still couldn't use them during cross-compilation as the plugin headers we want 
are
those of the target compiler (that will load the plugin eventually), not that of
the host compiler (which merely compiles the plugin and in theory doesn't even 
have
to be gcc or a plugin capable gcc).

for these reasons the correct include directive is "..." and not <...>. if it 
helps
to understand the situation better, consider that gcc plugins are to gcc as 
kernel
modules are to vmlinux and all kernel headers are included via "..." as well, 
regardless
of whether they're in the same directory or not.
