[mythtv] qmake creating -I../../../../include

[Chris Petersen]

This is a forwarded message from John Hernandez to Axel, the maintainer
of the redhat/fedora mythtv packages.  I've been having the same trouble
on my system, but Axel has been unable to reproduce the error.

We decided to bring the conversation over to the mythtv-dev list in hope
that someone here would know more about qmake and why it's doing the
whole ../../../../ thing instead of picking up on the absolute path (in
this case it should be /usr).
