What does $XORG_PREFIX point to, first off? That will help me and the
others know where you are installing X.org into.

To fix this problem:

In /etc/profile, add this:

{{{
# Set the initial PKG_CONFIG_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig
}}}

This should go right after the line which sets $PATH.

If XORG_PREFIX is not /usr, then add this to /etc/profile/xorg.sh:

{{{
pathappend $XORG_PREFIX/bin PATH
pathappend $XORG_PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig PKG_CONFIG_PATH
pathappend $XORG_PREFIX/share/pkgconfig PKG_CONFIG_PATH
}}}
