I believe it is a bug in Fedora's pkgconfig package. This patch:

http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/*checkout*/devel/pkgconfig/pkg-config-0.21-requires-private-fix.patch

The first hunk makes it so that the Requires.private is only parsed if
--static was specified. That breaks the functionality that the Cflags
field will always be printed.

Here's the difference between vanilla pkg-config-0.22 and fedora's
patch. pkg-config-rh contains the patch.

$ cat foo.pc
includedir=/foo/include

Name: foo
Description: foo
Version: 0
Cflags: -I${includedir}
$ cat bar.pc
Name: bar
Description: bar
Version: 0
Requires.private: foo
$ pkg-config --cflags bar
-I/foo/include
$ pkg-config-rh --cflags bar

$ pkg-config-rh --cflags --static bar
-I/foo/include

I suggest someone file a bug with Redhat.
