Something odd is happening here. We have a patch in OE-Core against
pkg-config which should disable "leagacy" pkg-config functionality.

I took a look and it somehow looks like the patch got broken. Could you
try again with 

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=rpurdie/wip8&id=de51d6ffae1d6a4f594687d5bdef25e731f44dfa

applied please? I think this should fix this problem.

Cheers,

Richard
