I just installed libgc1c2 and libgc-dev (both 1:7.1-3) on my Debian
stable/testing machine.  Apparently no problem there.

But there's still no pkgconfig for libgc, and so 

PKG_CHECK_MODULES([BDW_GC], [bdw-gc])

fails:

checking for BDW_GC... configure: error: Package requirements (bdw-gc) were not 
met:

No package 'bdw-gc' found

Am I missing some easy solution?

(I haven't tried the approach of setting BDW_GC_CFLAGS and BDW_GC_LIBS
yet.)
