:-)) Sure he understands the problem. He just didn't know that you don't
use autoconf/automake in the libofx project. Since the libxofx project
at this point in time consists only of 4-5 source files and 4-5 headers,
you got along with only having Makefiles. To change such a variable, I
have to edit a file by hand. I guess you should switch to an
autoconf/automake based configuration process sooner or later, but for
the time being you obviously get along without it :-)))

That's exactly how you could do that. -DMY_PATH=/some/whatever/path in
the compile command would be just fine for that.
