They haven't been installed for most libraries because we haven't switched
to the X11R7.0 versions that provide them. We do ship a few for libraries
that have them already:
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/fontconfig.pc
/usr/lib/$plat_64/pkgconfig/fontconfig.pc
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc
/usr/lib/$plat_64/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/xft.pc
/usr/lib/$plat_64/pkgconfig/xft.pc
The rest will start appearing as we move to the 7.x/modular builds
that provide them.
