I don't know... when I think about how to use functionality from several different pieces of code in C, I don't think of "include"; I think of a linker. Including another C source file in another strikes me as a bit odd.

Though perhaps thinking static inclusion is not quite the same - Turbo Pascal had "uses foo, bar baz;" lines which were directives to the "linker" IIRC (though there was no stand-alone linker, I think; it was a compiler-and-linker all in one, so you couldn't link TP code to, say, C code, though the other way around worked).
