) The most common arrangement is libraries in /usr/lib and includes

That appears to be common of GNOME components, but does not appear to be
common in the general case. (Automake's includedir location defaults to
prefix/include and its pkgincludedir location defaults to includedir/name,
not includedir/name-version.)
The following packages on my FC4 machine have versioned pkgincludedirs:
apr atk at-spi bonobo dbus devhelp eel2 evolution
evolution-data-server gail gal gdk-pixbuf gedit gimp glib
glib2 gnome-desktop gnome-keyring gnome-libs gnome-mag
gnome-panel gnome-speech gnome-vfs gnome-vfs2 gnopernicus
gstreamer gtk+ gtk2 gtkhtml gtkhtml2 gtkhtml3 gtksourceview
gtkspell howl libart_lgpl libbonobo libbonoboui libcroco

libgnomeprint22 libgnomeprintui22 libgnomeui libgsf libgtop2
libIDL librsvg2 libsoup libwnck linc metacity ORBit ORBit2
ots pango startup-notification subversion
Of that list, I believe only apr, ots, and subversion are not GNOME
components.
Also of that list, only the following did not appear to have .pc files
installed:
apr gnome-libs subversion
Just as another point of data, the following packages on my FC4 machines
have .pc files installed:
aiksaurus aiksaurus-gtk alsa-lib atk at-spi audiofile
bluez-libs bonobo dbh dbus devhelp eel2 esound evolution

rhythmbox shared-mime-info speex startup-notification valgrind
vte xemacs-sumo xfce4-panel xfce-mcs-manager xffm xmlsec1
xmlsec1-openssl xorg-x11
Of this second list, most of them appear to be either a) GNOME components,
b) GNOME-related/integrated software (gaim, ImageMagick), or c) software
maintained by people who are also GNOME developers (*xml*).
(The .pc file gawk installs is a README for "pc" versus "hpux" or "atari" :)
I would be very interested in researching how Libtool can help with multilib
builds. Other than that cause, however, I am not sure there exists a real
demand (outside of GNOME) for the features PKGConfig offers that Libtool
does not already provide.
(My own machines without GNOME or even X installed only have .pc files for
valgrind and/or openssl, and do not have PKGConfig installed. They do,
however, have many .la files. On my machines with a C++ compiler installed,
there is a g++-3 directory in /usr/include; on machines without, there are
no versioned include directories.)
