For giggles, I took a crack at doing that, manually creating .pc files for
everything I've been working with so far. It seems to work as expected,
except that unlike everything else libintl is detected entirely based on
whether the header and library can be found. I had to pass extra lib and
include dirs:

meson setup --wipe --pkg-config-path=C:\build64\lib\pkgconfig
-Dextra_include_dirs=C:\build64\include -Dextra_lib_dirs=C:\build64\lib
-Duuid=ossp build-auto

I'm assuming that's an oversight, given your previous comments?
