I don't do workarounds for such a problem, because the openobex.pc file
is correct and the bug is in the libusb package. However I included a
check for ${prefix}/lib/pkgconfig/libusb.pc now and if this file can't
be found the USB support will be disabled.
So now its up to the libusb upstream and package maintainers to include
a libusb.pc to get USB support for OpenOBEX.
