Hmm, I did give that some (very limited) consideration, but came to the
conclusion that it wasn't worth looking into (yet).  The complaint it
has is about uuid.pc which definitely won't exist anywhere under tools
yet, even if pkg-config could look for it in the right place.

In addition, I suspect pkg-config will default to $prefix/lib but
can't confirm that now as I've already removed that horribly broken
attempt :-)  My reason for that suspicion is that it seemed to detect
blkid.pc without any additional configuration, and was able to
determine that uuid.pc was a dependency for it.

Regards,

Matt.
