It also installs  enchant-2.pc instead of enchant.pc .   On my system,
after installing 2.1.3 but not having cleaned up 2.1.2 :

    $ pkg-config --list-all | grep enchant
    enchant-2             libenchant - A spell checking library
    enchant               libenchant - A spell checking library
    $ pkg-config --modversion -- enchant enchant-2
    2.1.2
    2.1.3
    $

So  if the  configure script  is still  looking for  a package  called
enchant  instead of  enchant-2, that  might explain  why upgrading  to
enchant-2.1.3 could break things so badly.

It is hard to believe that  someone would upgrade the major version of
a package in a release that presents itself as a point version update.
Yet how else can we understand this?
