For questions like this you probably want the help-m...@gnu.org mailing
list FYI.
I think the best solution is to escape the "$" so it's passed to the
shell rather than interpreted by make; using the shell function in
recipes is to be discouraged IMO.
So use:
all :
echo $$(pkg-config --libs glib-2.0)
This of course assumes that all other aspects of this system are set up
correctly: running POSIX operations like this on a Windows system
typically requires a lot of other configuration.
