CWD contains files with same names as system headers

Question

If the current directory contains a file with the same name as a system header, the compiler will first search the current directory even for includes from within system headers.

Is there a way to avoid that?

Simple reproduction case:

Working directory contains an empty limits.h and main.cpp with

#include <climits>
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    std::cout << INT_MAX << std::endl;
}

Running either g++ main.cpp or clang main.cpp causes an error saying that INT_MAX was not declared. With the limits.h absent, compilation works and the program works as expected. The <climits> system header on my system (ArchLinux updated at 21-04-2023) declares only LLONG limits and includes <limits.h> for the rest. However that seems to include my empty limits.h instead of the system one.

I ran into this issue in a more complex project when including <memory>, which included <limits.h> 6 files deep.
