I imagine pkgconfig will check first the env vars, and then /usr and alike. We have some impurities like those, that we use to solve through chroot builds (nix.conf option). Maybe a patch to the buildInput pkgconfig to ignore /usr would solve some of those impurities already, when not in chroot builds.
