Given the following .pc file:

prefix=/mingw64
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

# Uses Requires.private and Libs.private, under the assumption that
# when using shared libraries, the ELF dependencies from libhogweed.so
# to nettle and gmp work.

Name: Hogweed
Description: Nettle low-level cryptographic library (public-key algorithms)
URL: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle
Version: 3.1
Requires: # nettle
Requires.private:  nettle
Libs: -L${libdir} -lhogweed # -lgmp
Libs.private:  -lgmp
Cflags: -I${includedir}

pkg-config --cflags hogweed produces -I/mingw64/include, but pkgconf --cflags hogweed produces:

Package # was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `#.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package '#', required by 'C:/msys64/mingw64/lib/pkgconfig/hogweed', not found

I'm using pkgconf 0.9.7.

Looks like this has since been fixed--sorry for the noise!
