[openib-general] respect CFLAGS in ibis/ibdm, fix missing filewarning

[Eitan Zahavi]

Hi Pete,

Thanks for the pkconfig pointer. I will look it up.
The reason for the dependency is that libosmcom which is a set of
utilities used by OpenSM and ibis was designed such that the interface
for debug and non debug is not identical while the library name is the
same. 
I think that it makes more sense to either make the APIs the same or use
a different library name. But maybe pkconfig will solve that elegantly.
