While working on the Debian package, I got the following warning which
got recently added to Debian:

autotools-pkg-config-macro-not-cross-compilation-safe

  The package appears to use AC_PATH_PROG to discover the location of
  pkg-config(1). This macro fails to select the correct version to
  support cross-compilation.
  
  A better way would be to use the PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG macro from pkg.m4
  and then using the $PKG_CONFIG shell variable.
  
  Refer to https://bugs.debian.org/884798 for details.

Although properly detecting pkg files for cross-compilation may not be a
priority target, it could be useful to fix it :)
