I just found my driver not building, and tracked it down to a "missing"
xorg-macros.pc file, (installed in $(prefix)/share/pkgconfig rather than
$(prefix)/lib/pkgconfig).

I assumed that *must* have been a mistake and changed it, but now I see
it was intentional. Can someone explain to me the intent here? So far
I'm not seeing much more than "make everyone update their build
environment to add $(prefix)/share/pkgconfig to PKG_CONFIG_PATH).

Can someone tell me how this is actually helpful?
