Didn’t find a magic recipe but I did come up with a workaround.  I overrode the 
pkg-config command used by configure ala:

set pkg_config_cmd  "${prefix}/bin/pkg-config $@ | sed 's|-I${prefix}/include 
||g’”

and added --pkg_config="${pkg_config_cmd}” to the configure arguments.  I get 
one no-harm warning but that is much better than random build failures!

I’m still open to better solutions.
