A quick comment on this: if pkgconfig isn't an explicit dependency,
what provides the ownership of the %{_libdir}/pkgconfig directory?
If all packages with .pc files omit the pkgconfig dependency, there
will be nothing actually pulling in pkgconfig itself, will there?
pkgconfig should now be an automatic dependency.
If you know of any corner cases where rpm doesn't autodetect, we should note
those.
