Actually this (probably) doesn't work. If the PKG_CONFIG variable is set
in the environment to some value, say, /foo/bin/pkg-config, then in line
469 the add_to_env function will *append* the new value to the existing
value, giving
PKG_CONFIG=/foo/bin/pkg-config:/gnome/bin/pkg-config-msys.sh -- and that
value cannot be used as a command name anymore.

So either line 469 has to be changed, or, as it is done currently, the
variable has to be emptied beforehand.

actually, i think it PREpends the variables -

PKG_CONFIG=/gnome/bin/pkg-config-msys.sh:$PKG_CONFIG

like it does for PATH and everything else...

you might be correct that this variable should probably
be unique to the compile and discarded - rather than
saved for posterity as it is currently.  this is one
of those odd cases where im not sure what the correct
answer is - but i do know that in my case (only doing
one compile in this environment -or- only recompiling
this one program repeatedly) it seemed correct.
