This is not needed, since the host directory comes early in the PATH, so
it finds our own pkg-config.

In Buildroot, the man pages are simply removed from the target/ dir jsut
prior to generatign the filesystem images.

Then, why not simply patch the Makefile to not install them in the first
place? Like, in a post-extract hook.

Thanks for your persistence! :-)

Yann E. MORIN.
