As I understand the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR, once it is set, the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH is completely ignored. That is why I created that
mingw32-cross-pkg-config. Certain packages look for some build tools
using the native linux pc files. In that case, using
mingw32-cross-pkg-config and appropriate PKG_CONFIG_PATH is good.
I know that Fedora went the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR path long after we had the
mingw32-cross-pkg-config, but I am still considering that our solution
is more flexible.

Thanks for the explanation. If I understand correctly, the second
(preferred) option is like setting PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the mingw32
specific directories instead of PKG_CONFIG_PATH.
