[oe] AUTOTOOLS_STAGE_PKGCONFIG still used?

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

Dear all.

Is AUTOTOOLS_STAGE_PKGCONFIG still of any use?
I was trying to fidn out what I did, I ran a grep on both my
openembedded dir (results see below) and my yocto tree, both trees at
git head.
I see a lot of places where it is set but no place where it is used.

Anyone who can confirm that this is a stale var? Or otherwise anyone
who can explain how this is used. (and no, bitbake does not know the
var either, not that I had expected it)
