You are positive that your .pc files don't list any further software
requirements that might be development in nature?  If they did, this
rule wouldn't apply.  I would think that it would have to be something
like this:

If A) your package has no distinction between runtime and development
libraries (example mono .dll files), and B) your .pc file lists no other
development requirements, than your .pc file can go in the main package
and not a sub -devel package.
