Checking the findAGG module it seems rather complex by comparison to
e.g. findFreetype. It seems that AGG is not being found because on
windows PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE is false, so the variable _AGGLinkFlags
isn't set and findAGG therefore doesn't ever look for the library.
Commenting out the if(_AGGLinkFlags) line allows AGG to be found
correctly.

I agree there is an issue there that I would be willing to fix.
However, is there a need for any agg fixups at all when you are about
to deliver a patch (discussed prior to the last release and put off
until now) that would remove the agg variant of the wxwidgets and thus
all dependence of PLplot on agg?
