Replacing 'pkg-config' with 'pkgconf' and reconfiguring+compile still gives the
same error. But I think I found the issue: I had a
/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig/json-c.pc file pointing at /usr/local/include/json-c.
Not sure how that garbage ended up there. Removing this file and compilation is ok.
My apologies for the noise.
