It does, but having "" and (ab)using it to mean <> would be bad -
if the current directory happens to contain a file with such name
then confusion begins.

I propose adding implicit "" if <> are not given explicitly.
As -#include in ghc does (it looks for "" or <> and adds "" if neither
is found; it might even not be necessary to allow explicit "" at all,
only explicit <> or implicit "").
