git patch

I am attaching a patch which provides a xkeyboard-config.pc pkg-config file.  This would be used by xserver to detect the actual location of an installed xkeyboard-config in the case where the xserver prefix does not match that of xkeyboard-config (e.g. when building xserver from git w/o arguments).

Technically, that patch looks correct. But I do not quite get the purpose. Who and why would need checking for xk-c at build time?

So that xkbcomp and xserver will find the correct path to xk-c when built in different prefixes, or if --with-xkb-base is set to some custom path in xk-c:
