I use these commands to set up the prefix before installing and updating 
babl/GEGL/GIMP:

prefix=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
datarootdir=${prefix}/share

The babl/GEGL/GIMP run/lib/pkgconfig/ pc files have text like this 
(sometimes fewer or more lines):

prefix=/home/elle/code/gimpdefault/run
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include
datarootdir=${prefix}/share

Is there another step involved in passing the LIB statement to 
configure/autogen or adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH?
