You are right! I have pkg-config-0.23 in LFS6.5, and 0.25 or 0.26 in the other 
machines. Only with 0.23, pkg-config comand you gave (thanks for it!), exits 
with error status 1.

So, in the correction for the book, you could, if and whenever you wish, 
replace:

-      If you have <application>pkg-config 0.25</application> or older installed
+      If you have <application>pkg-config 0.24</application> or older installed

How safe is to upgrade pkg-config, as I've been having problems in LFS6.5 not 
occurring in the others, some probably related to this package?

About the other mails, thanks for the sed commenting out gtkdoc in Gnumakefile.
