configure needs to find TWO things:
  #1 the "lib" file which is libpdf.so in /usr/local/lib
  #2 the "header" file which is libpdf.h in /usr/local/include

If you tell configure to look inside of /usr/local/lib, it can't
*find* the libpdf.h file, because it's not inside that directory, it's
inside a directory parallel to that.

If you tell configure to look in /usr/local, it "knows" to check in
/usr/local/lib for the .so file, and in /usr/local/include for the .h
file, and it finds everything it needs.
