Well, it depends ;) When people use pkgconf then this usually installs a pkg-config alias, too, so that would be no problem. The problem comes when other places in the kernel start copying that code over, and then hardcode pkg-config for stuff that needs a prefixed pkg-config because it is about target code. Given that I would prefer it this way, but YMMV. If it is that variable that blocks integrating I'll change it.
