my pkg-config has been version 0.12.0 for ages, the .pc file is in the
right location and contains the exact same string that you gave me. i
really don't understand. on all my secondary freebsd systems where i
installed 4.6 from scratch on then cvsupped (even from 4.5), atk compiled
like a breeze. something must be broken on this system, but what ?
