By all means, please enlighten me. My understanding from starting to research the issue is that the user needs to set up nonstandard paths in PKG_CONFIG_PATH instead of passing them to the configure --with-sqlite3 flag.
However, I'm all ears. If this is a non-issue please say so. I'd be delighted to punt this to PKG_CHECK_MODULES. In that case, should we just ignore anything passed to --with-sqlite3=xxxx?
