That's beacuse the new value for that environment variable may be seen
in that terminal only. The process 'anjuta' (and thus also the
./autogen.sh command that is run when you select Auto Generate) still
sees the old value.

Try adding this line in your .bash_profile file:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

Then log out; then log in again. Your problem should be solved.
