Assuming distribution packagers do their job, the .pc files will end up in
the right place.

For instance, I just committed the smaller version of the libX11 patch to
Debian's XFree86 4.3 packages. By default, the pkg-config stuff is put
into /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig. For Debian (and possibly many others), the
right directory is /usr/lib/pkgconfig. I manually shift the file (as many
others are done).
