how about making it implicit and making multiple inclusion definable by 
some pragma...
it is a breaking change but tbh ppl that rely on multiple inclusion(afaik 
VT emulation in VS for example) are smart enough to fix their files in no 
time.
Call me crazy but I consider include guards one of the few remaining things 
that make C++ feel like an old language.
