[csw-maintainers] pkg-config setup for X11 ?

What is the correct PKG_CONFIG_PATH these days, particularly for X11 ?


I currently have:
   
    ellson at unstable9s:ellson> echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
    /opt/csw/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/csw/X11/lib/pkgconfig


But this yields:

    ellson at unstable9s:ellson> pkg-config --libs x11
    -L/opt/csw/lib -lX11 


which does not provide the -L /usr/openwin/lib -lXext needed by, e.g.
/opt/csw/lib/libcairo.so

    ellson at unstable9s:ellson> ldd /opt/csw/lib/libcairo.so | grep X
        libXrender.so.1 =>       /opt/csw/lib/sparcv8/libXrender.so.1
        libX11.so.4 =>   /usr/lib/libX11.so.4
        libXext.so.0 =>  /usr/openwin/lib/libXext.so.0
