Close, but this ain't horseshoes.  If you use #include "foo.h" the compiler
looks for foo.h in the directory the source file is in, not neccesarily
the directory you are compiling from.  For example, if you are in the directory
fred and issue the command 'cc ../src/foo.c', foo.h will only be found if
it lives ../src, not if it lives in fred.
