Lots of build systems invoke pkg-config, internally, e.g. to discover the appropriate include and library directories for a dependency. Supporting it would improve our visibility into dependency resolution.

One small hiccup: most builds call pkg-config directly, rather than some indirect environment or Make variable. So effective wrapping of pkg-config will almost always require a shim, most likely.
