CFLAGS seems to work, but CPPFLAGS definitely does not. I'm not sure
about LDFLAGS. With a standard autoconf setup, there would also be
CPP, CXXCPP, LIBS, and possibly others, which may be useful for some
people; I only need CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, and LDFLAGS. I know about
--with-extraincdir, but it would be more convenient if MPlayer worked
the same way as other packages. Also, I would have more confidence in
an automatically generated configure script; a hand-edited script is
more likely to have bugs, even if it is intended to support all the
same features.
