That's the solution I had chosen in my version [1]:

+HOST_LIBGTK3_DEPENDENCIES = host-libglib2 host-libpng host-gdk-pixbuf
+HOST_LIBGTK3_CFLAGS = $(shell $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/pkg-config-native \
+ --cflags --libs gdk-pixbuf-2.0)
+
+define HOST_LIBGTK3_INSTALL_PKG_CONFIG_NATIVE
+ $(RM) -f $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/pkg-config-native
+ echo -e '#!/bin/sh\n' \
+
'PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=$(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib/pkgconfig:$(HOST_DIR)/usr/share/pkgconfig
' \
+ '$(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/pkgconf $$@' >> $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/pkg-config-native
+ chmod +x $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/pkg-config-native
+endef
+
+HOST_LIBGTK3_PRE_CONFIGURE_HOOKS += HOST_LIBGTK3_INSTALL_PKG_CONFIG_NATIVE

This hook could easily be moved to package/pkgconf/pkgconf.mk and added to
HOST_PKGCONF_POST_INSTALL_HOOKS. If "host-pkg-config" is preferred over
"pkg-config-native", I can provide a patch using this name.

Best regards,
