:) Yes

 AC> As for the patch, the pkg-config man page on my system only
 AC> documents /usr/lib/pkgconfig, not /usr/share/pkgconfig.  Is the

 AC> a minimum version required?

"PKG_CONFIG_PATH ... the default is libdir/pkgconfig:datadir/pkgconfig
where libdir is the libdir where pkg-config and datadir is the datadir
where pkg-config was installed."

Traced back to pkg-config 0.16, released 26.03.2005, 0.15 do not have
it.

 AC> (If so, perhaps it's best for now to install to both locations, so
 AC> that older pkgconfig still works.)

http://www.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide states pkg-config 0.18.1 is
a minimum requirement, as it introduced Requires.private/Libs.private
fields.
