Xrender.pc most likely contains path of include and library files.

You probably effectively don't use Xrender.pc since, as you wrote,
it "isn't in the pkg-config dir".

And it probably is not consistent with actual file locations anyway,
since, as you wrote: "So to make some things simpler I moved all the headers
from extensions and the headers and a couple of C files".

Now, why do you think you've made things simpler ?

How did you let 'configure' know where the files are - you moved them,
remember ?

Did you use environment variables in order to help 'configure'  find
the necessary files ?
