[Lcdproc] [patch] hd44780 FTDI USB support

Hello,

would you please have a look at
http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/smoketests/st-compile-report/FreeBSD-6.2-RELEASE-p8-i386:current:smoke-make.log

The hd44780-ftdi driver fails to compile. I think it is because it is
missing the local includes. However, the config.log shows that
LIBFTDI_CFLAGS and _LIBS are set correctly.

I really don't understand what autotools are doing here, because e.g.
for hd44780-lcd2usb (just one line above) the LIBUSB_CFLAGS are set
correctly. Shouln't the _CFLAGS be the same for all hd44780 drivers?

Regards
Markus
