Forgive me, but I am new to cmake.  After looking at the poppler code a bit
more, 
I think I understand what you are asking for.

Let me see if I understand.  I believe you are telling me that in order to 
support cmake, it is necessary to be able to build the uninstalled.pc files
from 
the uninstalled.pc.in files by doing the following:

- Adding a macro to cmake/modules/PopplerMacros.cmake that builds the
uninstalled
  pkg-config file but doesn't install it.  Perhaps something like

  macro(POPPLER_CREATE_UNINSTALLED_PKGCONFIG generated_file)
    if(NOT WIN32)
      configure_file(${generated_file}.cmake   
  ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${generated_file} @ONLY)
    endif(NOT WIN32)
  endmacro(POPPLER_CREATE_UNINSTALLED_PKGCONFIG)

- Then we'd need to add lines for each uninstalled pc file in the toplevel
  CMakeLists.txt file, something like:

  poppler_create_uninstalled_pkgconfig(poppler.pc lib${LIB_SUFFIX}/pkgconfig)

Is that what is needed in addition to providing the uninstalled.pc files and
modifying configure.ac to build the uninstalled.pc files from the
uninstalled.pc.in files for users who use configure?
