I don't believe so, and while pkg-config originated from the gnome
project, it no longer has any ties to GNOME and there might well be
projects out there that rely on the current behaviour.

If we're going to get away from that, the only way would be to add a
file version field to the pc files that'd tell pkg-config what each
package expected.
