  Replying to my own question:

  it seems that the behaviour of --relative-path is such, that if one of
the -Ipaths have a double // then it generates the absolute paths for the
idl-s included from that path. 

  So if I've configured with --prefix=/opt/kde2/  the paths were
incorrectly generated, while with --prefix=/opt/kde2  they are correct. 

     I am just reporting it, because maybe others had this problem, too.
