Right. That was just a hint, a recommendation to be careful during
package review, since this can be an issue also with other packages.
And sometimes it changes unexpectedly when upstream modifies the
Makefile setup (e.g. our optflags might get overruled). Here it is
not a MUST FIX item. Just something to comment on.

> I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include -I/usr/include

To expand on that, /usr/include is a standard search path for include
files. It need not be added to the user search list with -I again. It
is harmless with this package, but with other packages it can happen
that the added -I/usr/include enters packaged files and propagates to
other packages via build requirements. As a worst-case, the modified
search order for include files makes it impossible to customise the
search path further in order to locate the desired headers. In other
words, standard search locations suddenly override user-defined locations,
boom. This is a common mistake by some upstream projects.
