Elsewhere I received advice to delete ALL the pkg-config files on the system in order to get a non-gambas application to build properly.  Since I did that I have had no problems, neither with gambas3 nor other source builds. There is information regarding the "pains" of pkg-config in various places on the internet, check first for some related to your distro.
