But the "Requires" header is already present in the upstream
webkit.pc.in.
See
http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/browser/trunk/WebKit/gtk/webkit.pc.in

Another strange thing: why did you rename the pkg-config file to
"WebKitGtk.pc"? configure scripts of programs(e.g. midori) look for
webkit-1.0 (webkit-1.0.pc) which is the official (upstream) name of the
pc file.
