I'd call Debian and Ubuntu "recent GNU/Linux distributions".  They don't come 
with Guile-1.8-dev any more.  That's why the Debian package of LilyPond 
contains its own private Guile-1.8.  And Jonas: "If guile-1.8 can be found, it 
is picked by default" does not help people testing Guile-2.x and Guile-1.8 in 
parallel.

Werner: "If you want to override pkg-config, use either the environment 
variables GUILE_CFLAGS and GUILE_LIBS": that's actually degressing from using 
GUILE_CONFIG since guile-config's original purpose was freeing the developer of 
having to know the exact contents for those variables.

How about
--with-guile-pkgconf=/usr/local/tmp/guile-1.8/lib/pkgconfig/guile-1.8.pc
?  That would work explicitly just for Guile, would not conflict with other 
uses of pkgconfig, and would allow being specific even when using multiple 
installations of Guile.

** [issues:#5830] aclocal.m4: Update PKG_* macros to pkg-config 0.29.2**

**Status:** Started
**Created:** Sat Mar 07, 2020 09:26 AM UTC by Werner LEMBERG
**Last Updated:** Sat Mar 07, 2020 10:42 AM UTC
**Owner:** Werner LEMBERG


This commit removes the old definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES (from 2004) and
simply appends a recent version of pkg-config's file `pkg.m4` at the end of
`aclocal.m4`.

This immediately improves documentation of pkg-config stuff.  Now the list
of environment variables shown in `configure --help` ends with

  PKG_CONFIG  path to pkg-config utility
  PKG_CONFIG_PATH
              directories to add to pkg-config's search path
  PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
              path overriding pkg-config's built-in search path
  GUILE_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for GUILE, overriding pkg-config
  GUILE_LIBS  linker flags for GUILE, overriding pkg-config
  BDWGC_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for BDWGC, overriding pkg-config
  BDWGC_LIBS  linker flags for BDWGC, overriding pkg-config
  PANGO_FT2_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for PANGO_FT2, overriding pkg-config
  PANGO_FT2_LIBS
              linker flags for PANGO_FT2, overriding pkg-config
  FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for FONTCONFIG, overriding pkg-config
  FONTCONFIG_LIBS
              linker flags for FONTCONFIG, overriding pkg-config
  FREETYPE2_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for FREETYPE2, overriding pkg-config
  FREETYPE2_LIBS
              linker flags for FREETYPE2, overriding pkg-config
  GLIB_CFLAGS C compiler flags for GLIB, overriding pkg-config
  GLIB_LIBS   linker flags for GLIB, overriding pkg-config
  GOBJECT_CFLAGS
              C compiler flags for GOBJECT, overriding pkg-config
  GOBJECT_LIBS
              linker flags for GOBJECT, overriding pkg-config
