What's the matter with this:

The real problem is the use of := which assigns USER_CFLAGS from the
current value of CFLAGS, which is incomplete, as you noted.
Moving the include around seems slightly bogus, since its precise
location shouldn't matter.
If we switch to plain =, then it will be lazy-evaluated with the full
CFLAGS.
And we should check other uses of := to make sure they don't have
similar problems.
