The pkg-config included with Mono on Mac has a script which sets pkg-config,
presumably to relocate it. Unfortunately, it inserts its values at the
beginning of PKG_CONFIG_PATH, which means that it's impossible to override
these pkgconfig paths.

I would suggest substituting it at the end:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.8.2/lib/pkgconfig:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.8.2/share/pkgconfig

Or instead overriding PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR (if empty), which overrides the paths
built into the pkgconfig binary:

if [ -z "$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR" ]; then
    export
PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.8.2/lib/pkgconfig:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.8.2/share/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/share
