OK, that got PKG_CHECK_EXISTS fine.  To be precise I had to do:

   echo /opt/local/share/aclocal >> $(aclocal --print-ac-dir)/dirlist
   aclocal -I m4 -I gnulib/m4
   automake
   autoconf
   CFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include \
   LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib \
   ./configure --without-xen --without-qemu

For reasons which are unclear gl_COMPILER_FLAGS macro is not copied into 
aclocal.m4.  I think autom4te is refusing to believe that this macro is 
used, even though it's clearly in configure.in, but I didn't spend too 
long trying to delve into the internal machinations of autom4te. 
Instead I just commented out the two references to gl_COMPILER_FLAGS.

Rich.
