I might take a look into making pkg-config work for libcompel (at least 
in installed case).

Previously, I was stuck with these issues:
(1) uninstalled case, which is used for criu and compel examples 
(compel/tests/*);
(2) two sets of libs needed -- one for parasite, one for parasite loader;
(3) ability to specify add'l plugins for parasite.

But it looks like (2) and (3) are solvable -- for all of it, we'll just 
need multiple .pc files,
like compel-parasite.pc, compel.pc, compel-plugin-$NAME.pc.

I'll see if I can make this idea fly.
