I don't have a mac but your error suggests that pkg-config is not
properly installed (if at all). Make sure pkg-config is installed and
look for a file named pkg.m4 (here it is /usr/share/aclocal/pkg.m4 but
I'm using linux). If it's there and you still get the error then
aclocal isn't finding it and you should add its path to ACLOCAL_FLAGS
preceded by -I

It should be stable as it should generate portable C code, but again,
I haven't tested it.
