Well, it's incomplete depending on the situation so we don't want it in
the configure (Cf my mail about testing such things) and you're probably
setting --extra-ldflags already for your custom paths.
Also, you need to add --pkg-config=true anyway, so you can do the effort
to add -lx264 as well.

Unless I misunderstood the question, it will; --pkg-config=true will just
make the fake pkg-config raise no flags, and then compilation will be
tried with those empty flags (and the --extra-{c,ld}flags).
