Stick this in your configure.ac:
m4_pattern_forbid([PKG_*])
then anyone running autoconf on your package without the pkg-config m4
modules installed will get an earlier error at autoconf time flagging
the unexpanded macro, rather than a late error at configure execution of
a shell syntax error or unfound command.
