Again, with the caveat I haven't tried to build libwpg in a while, setting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable before trying to configure should work; it's in my list of standard commands to run when doing a libwp* build, and that's clearly a pkg-config-related error message you're seeing. (If that variable doesn't work, perhaps the PKG_ENVIRONMENT_PATH variable the errors mentioned is a new name for the PKG_CONFIG_PATH var in more recent pkg-config versions?) You'll want that variable to be set to something like "/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig" for your setup (the former path might not be necessary; it depends on whether libwpg or writerperfect needs to identify libxml via pkg-config, because that's where libxml's pkg-config file is when shipped by the OS, at least 10.3-10.5). You can verify that /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig does contain the .pc files for libwpd-0.9 and libwpd-stream-0.9, and if not hunt around for the path that does contain those files.
