For what it's worth, pkg-config under Win32 is relocatable (as are the
.pc files). This is part of the Glib implementation. Basically, if
pkg-config.exe is installed in a location like <root>\bin\pkg-config.exe,
it will look for configuration files into <root>\lib\pkgconfig\ (in addition
to hard-coded paths).
