The script contains the following:

"""
# using our installed *.pc only - neither default nor user paths
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig"
"""

pkg-config's manpage says:
"""
[...]
PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
    Replaces the default pkg-config search directory.
[...]
"""

To be honest, I cannot figure out if it is a special case that happens
to work or it is subtly still broken.  Helmut, can you have a look at
this and clarify it?

 * If it is a special-case, I think it is easiest to opt for an
   override.

Thanks,
~Niels
