The actual error is as follows:
checking for libbt... Package libbt was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'libbt.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libbt' found
configure: error: Library requirements (libbt) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
And yes I had made the mistake of setting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable to the actual file, however changing it to point to just the directory made no difference to the error.
My PKG_CONFIG_PATH is set to:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Thanks for the help so far Owen

Thanks for the help Markus however I tried exporting the ariable as you set (and its set according to 'env') byt configure still comes up with the same error... even though the libbt.pc file exists. any more suggestions?
It would have been helpful if you actually included the output of env for
PKG_CONFIG_PATH
My guess is that you set it to (based on the locn in your first email)
/usr/local/lib/libbt.pc
but you should actually set it to
/usr/local/lib
