When importing code to the esp82666 this dependency on <avr/pgmspace.h> will cause compiler issues.
Is there a preferred way to override this?
It can be dug out but it is unpleasantly buried in the supporting xxx.h files plus it creates another branch of the code ( esp arduino code versus plain avr arduino code).
Any update in the supporting library means it has to be dug out for the esp library.

Try removing the "avr/" subfolder and simply use "#include <pgmspace.h>
That doesn't means the rest of library code will compile fine, it is depend which one you trying to port.

This is the best solution so far and I've been doing this...just wondering if there was a high level switch in the compilation at the board level esp8266 to substitute for the avr/ dependency.

Yes ! Many compatible libs already use the "#if defined(ESP8266)" flag.
