Also, in general, as the end-user input, we would want to make it
take the precedence, so that CFLAGS can be used to override the
default command line; e.g. we may have -DMACRO=value on BASIC_CFLAGS
or others on ALL_CFLAGS, and let the users who know what they are
doing use CFLAGS=-DMACRO=anothervalue to override it.

Swapping the order between CFLAGS and BASIC_CFLAGS in ALL_CFLAGS may
be a good change for that reason as well.

In any case, I won't take a patch to rename source files left and
right only to work around name collisions with random system header
files we do not even use ourselves, unless/until I know we have
tried all the other saner approaches first.  That's a workaround,
not a solution.
