           Summary: The mono.pc file should have a variable containing the
                    value of @sysconfdir@
           Product: Mono: Runtime
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: misc

It would be useful if the mono.pc file defined a pkg-config variable that would
contain the value of @sysconfdir at . That way one could programmatically in a
Makefile or script get the path to the machine.config file (for passing to
mkbundle2's --machine-config switch) even if mono has been configured with a
--sysconfdir switch that points to some random place instead of the "normal"
$prefix/etc.

This (untested) patch should do this:
