>Description:
	x11/rep-gtk2 (and hence wm/sawfish) uses pkg-config but
	does nothing to make it available.   Build fails...

>How-To-Repeat:
	Start with a clean /usr/pkg - the easy way (the way i detected
	this) is to use pkg_config and start with a (relatively) clean
	sandbox.   Attempt to build x11/rep-gtk2 (or wm/sawfish which
	depends upon x11/rep-gtk2 - this was how I actually found the
	problem).

	Expect to see ...


checking for GNU msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt
checking for pkg-config... no
*** The pkg-config script could not be found. Make sure it is
*** in your path, or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable
*** to the full path to pkg-config.
*** Or see http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig to get pkg-config.
configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 >= 1.3) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/x11/rep-gtk2
*** Error code 1

>Fix:
	I suspect there's probably a conventional way to cause this
	dependency to be satisfied (I suspect it is fairly common) so
	I won't bother supplying a useless patch with my way of making
	it happen...

	A simple workaround is to manually install pkg-config before
	building x11/rep-gtk2 (or wm/sawfish).   Did that, all OK,
	x11/rep-gtk2 still should be fixed..
