Also agree, regardless my proposal, libfdt should be fixed. However v2.9
won't compile on CentOS7 (and I suppose on RHEL7) which is a bit annoying.
And having "-isystem" makes some sense as these headers are normally system
ones and I'd think they should be treated the same way (i.e. path should be
included via -isystem vs. -I).
