AM_PATH_GTK_3_0 uses AC_PATH_PROG for finding pkg-config. Unfortunately,
that will find the build architecture pkg-config which in turn will miss
the host architecture gtk+3.0. What must be used here is the host
architecture pkg-config and that is found with AC_PATH_TOOL. Please
consider applying the attached patch.

If AM_PATH_GTK_3_0 was using PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG or even
PKG_CHECK_MODULES, this problem would have gone away entirely. Is there
a reason for not using these macros?
