well, pkg-config is available on win32, at least that is what 
http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/wiki/ says, although i haven´t tested it 
yet.

so what about this option: for qt 4.2 we leave things as they are, and for qt 
4.3 the trolls install .pc files on windows too, and we use them under linux 
and under windows ?
