Done so many times before ;)

1. /usr/include the system header directory and is on a compiler's internal
include file search path. It should never be explicitly passed. Packages
requiring -I/usr/include are broken "by definition" and are likely to be badly
designed.

2. In this particular case, the culprit is toplevel Makefile.am appending
@includedir@ to AM_CPPFLAGS:

AM_CPPFLAGS = ... -I at includedir@ 

This is abuse of the autotools - @includedir@ is a destination directory (a
directory where files are supposed to be installed to).
