The pkg-config updates are in 'maint', but have not yet been released (in 3.7.5). I would say we should update the recommendations when we release 3.8. If we're committing to gnumake, we can greatly improve PETSc makefiles. I feel dirty every time the current makefiles (with their anti-patterns and lack of namespacing) are recommended for users.
