If you compare this with what `pkg-config --libs pangox' prints, at
least on my system:

-Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -R/usr/X11R7/lib -Wl,-R/usr/X11R7/lib -pthread 
-L/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/X11R7/lib -lpangox-1.0 -lX11 -lpango-1.0 -lm 
-lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lintl  

it adds a lot of stuff, presumably from the required library (pango,
which in turn requires glib-2.0,gobject-2.0,gmodule-no-export-2.0)

But the order is still /pkg/ before /X11R7/, both for -L and -R-ish
paths.

-ptread must come, for instance, from gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc.

Most of the Libs: lines in these .pc files look like they should be
Libs.private:, so that only `pkg-config --static' would
