NAK. pkg-config is a lot smarter than AC_CHECK_*.

There must be a third-party addon of pkg-config for Xcode. More or less
everything uses it these days.

It should definitely not fail the configure if you don't have it by
default, but I'm ambivalent about automatically turning it on. There
has been some movement in other packages to stop doing this automagical
stuff and force the user to be explicit in what to enable and disable.

Sure, if it can be done cleanly.
