What we should do, IMHO, is to check in our own configure.in if there
is a pkg-config in PATH on a system where one is not expected to be

But wait, we already do that!

Have to agree with Tor here, best way out is to check in configure
and fail fast.

How about poking PATH there for suspicious segments like "/opt/" and
"/usr/local/", and suggesting removal?
