For now, the important thing is that FC5 is in a state that everything
builds, and is ready for final release. Minor trivia like this is not
mission critical to the release of the OS.
Moving the .pc file like Ralf suggests is very unlikely to break anything
at all, since default search order for pkg-config is
libdir/pkgconfig:datadir/pkgconfig, so the file would still be found.
