Well, the zlib.h #include could be rewritten as e.g.

 	#ifdef ZLIB_INCPATH_SET
 	#  include <zlib.h>
 	#else
 	#  include "zlib.h"
 	#endif

and then builds which set -Iblah appropriately would also do 
-DZLIB_INCPATH_SET. Would this work for you, as a way of catering to both 
out-of-source-tree and command-line builds?
