Frequens,

I think the include files need to be in /usr/local/include.  I think
the issue is that some include files were not normally considered
public but are needed by GDAL.  As a workaround I would
suggest copying /usr/local/Source/include/* to /usr/local/include.
Did you unpack your ECW SDK right in /usr/local?  That seems
pretty messy.

Best regards,
