[opensuse-mingw] which pkg-config to use

When pkg-config is required for a package because it is needed by the
configure script, it needs to be listed as a BuildRequired dependency
in the spec file. Currently I see three different versions of the
dependency:

BuildRequires: pkgconfig (most common)
BuildRequires: pkg-config (e.g. mingw32-cairo)
BuildRequires: mingw32-cross-pkg-config (e.g. mingw-poppler)

Which one should be used?

And a related question: I presume pkgconfig and pkg-config come from
the native OpenSUSE package and mingw32-cross-pkg-config from the
package with the same name. But what does the mingw32-pkg-config
package provide?
