[syslog-ng] 3.4.3 compile on OpenIndiana WAS: [Bug 173] Compile issues with syslog-ng_3.3.4.tar.gz

Eventlog installs a file named eventlog.pc (not sure about the exact name
but this is the only one with .pc extension)

This is then searched along PKG_CONFIG_PATH by the syslog-ng configure
script. It uses a utility called pkg-config for that.

If it doesn't find it or you don't have pkg-config you can still force the
appropriate CFLAGS/LDFLAGS settings through environment variables. See the
configure script's help screen.
