pkgconfig 0.17.2-1 is broken?

[Teun Burgers <a dot rburgers at quicknet dot nl>]

I think there is a problem with pkgconfig 0.17.2-1.
For instance, /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gdk.pc
depends on /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib.pc:

For glib one correctly gets:

clientxp#1(~)$ pkg-config --libs glib
-lglib

For gdk one gets:

clientxp#1(~)$ pkg-config --libs gdk
-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgdk -lintl -lXext -lX11 -lm

Note that -lglib is *not* added to the list of libraries.

These are the contents of /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gdk.pc: there is a 
dependency on glib.

clientxp#1(~)$ cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gdk.pc
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: GDK
Description: GIMP Drawing Kit
Version: 1.2.10
Requires: glib
Libs: -L${libdir}   -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgdk -lintl  -lXext -lX11  -lm
Cflags: -I${includedir}/gtk-1.2  -I/usr/X11R6/include

running pkg-config with PKG_CONFIG_DEBUG_SPEW=1 set shows that it
finds the correct .pkg files.

If I revert to 0.15.0-4, pkg-config --libs gdk will correctly list 
-lglib. Has pkg-config's functionality changed (I don't think so)
or is this a bug?
