Well, as long as nobody has the great idea to pass absolute 
search pathes, an sysroot'ed environment would be fine. 

But there're lots of other situations where pkg-config can help
much. For example if you want to run checks before compiling 
ie. to make sure the lib is installed and is new enough.

And think abouth cases where you don't have standard locations, 
mvcc, etc.
