ugh - Thank you for the help Milan, and sorry for the noise.  Your
request to ask for --debug information led me to the answer.  pkg-config
responded that --debug was an unknown option, which led me to discover
that my distro had defaulted to installing

     Homepage:            https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf
     Description:         pkg-config compatible replacement with no 
dependencies other than ANSI C89

rather than 

     Homepage:            http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/wiki/
     Description:         Package config system that manages compile/link flags

once I corrected that, things appeared as they should.

Again, thank you, and sorry for the noise.
