Dear Maintainer,

The package fails to build when I use DEB_CPPFLAGS_APPEND:

$ DEB_CPPFLAGS_APPEND='-D__BROKEN__=1' dpkg-buildpackage
[..]
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/buildd/libtecla-1.6.2'
make: invalid option -- 'D'
make: invalid option -- '_'
make: invalid option -- 'F'

It looks like CPPFLAGS ends up unquoted, so make is called like:
$ make CPPFLAGS=-D__BROKEN__=1 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2

....which it's quite unhappy about.

This breaks the reproducible builds builder:
