I'm going to add $(ZLIB_CFLAGS) to ffwoff/Makefile.am, and would prefer
to keep using ZLIB_CFLAGS in the upstream sources because it matches the
naming scheme of variables set by pkgconfig. It would be slightly
inconsistent if I used _INCLUDE for zlib and _CFLAGS for libraries
handled by pkgconfig. But since the affected Makefile.am is hardly ever
changed, it shouldn't require too much additional work to adapt it in
the TL sources.
