If you want to make the code copy-pastable to other parts, you need to
disallow using the ordinary relative-path header inclusion. And I don't
see a simplification of the Makefile.

What ambiguity? As said above, said ambiguity emanates from using
inclusions with relative paths (and from using the same header
filenames) and not adding an -I for the parent folder for the files in a
subfolder. (It would be different if we did something nuts like adding
-Ilibavcodec to the compilation of libavformat files).
