[Xastir] Debian and Shapelib

Debian's libshp-dev (1.2.9) puts shapefil.h in /usr/include and maps.c
(latest CVS, at least) will not compile as-is.

I am not very familiar with C programming (Fortran, anyone?), but
changing line 73 of maps.c from:

#include "libshp/shapefil.h"

to:

#include "shapefil.h" 

or 

#include <shapefil.h>

causes maps.c to compile without errors.  I'm not sure which is the
correct syntax, but either seems to work.

This is with the "sarge"/testing version of Debian and may not apply to
other versions or distributions.
