I don't think setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH is appropriate.  The output of
configure shows that pkg-config is found.  The output contains the
following lines:
"checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0...yes
checking for BASE_DEPENDENCIES... no"  It also states that I may need to
set environment variables BASE_DEPENDENCIES_CFLAGS an
BASE_DEPENDENCIES_LIBS.  Does setting those do anything?  What should they
point towards?
