OK, I just did that:

	cd /usr/ports/devel/pkg-config
	make
	make deinstall
	make reinstall

Then I ran this command again:

	pkg-config dbus-1 --modversion --debug

once again, there was _no_ stdout output, and just the two messages:

gnome-config: not found
gnome-config: not found

written to stderr.

What now?

(I suppose that I could run gdb on it, but I have no idea what the thing
is _supposed_ to do, so the probability of me being able to tell what
it is _not_ doing properly seems thin.  But I'm willing to give it a go
if you suggest what I should be looking for and/or where to set a break-
point.)
