.pc files must go to libdata/pkgconfig, not in lib/pkgconfig.
What's up with pkg-message? It does not seem to be referenced anywhere
in the port.

It's the same port, do it as an update on that directory.

Have you tried without it? Did it worked? I have a feeling this line
will have zero effect on the build.

It will compile with or without USE_LDCONFIG. USE_LDCONFIG is ment to
expose libraries for other ports. You don't need to expose libraries to
ldconfig, if they are never linked again, only dl_open()ed on runtime.
Typically, this covers all plugins. I'm quite sure the content of
lib/opensync will be dl_open plugins.
lib/pkgconfig does not contain any shared libraries.

You should read make configure output, it usually checks for
dependencies there. If it uses scons for build instead of make, I think
you might have the dependency list right here.
Clean space test will help you verify this. You could set up Tinderbox
for that.

Port the application too :)
