If you do it this way, the relative path is incorrect. You'd end up
with something like this:

#include "../../glib-compat.h"

And that's really ugly ...

That can happen if you get some variable setting wrong, ie. if the $PWD 
the package is built in is not placed before any system files.

If that happens, you will not be able to compile PAN anyway, since the 
patch I provided sticks to the coding style that Charles introduced, 
ie. it is done this way for other includes already.
