[Buildroot] Weird behaviour of pkgconf/pkg-config

Hello,
I have trouble with "pkgconf", which does not find "libjpeg" when
building "qt5webengine":
$ host/bin/pkgconf --libs libjpeg
Package libjpeg was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libjpeg.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libjpeg', required by 'virtual:world', not found
On the other hand, "pkg-config" works as expected:
$ host/bin/pkg-config --libs libjpeg
-Lhost/bin/../x86_64-buildroot-linux-gnu/sysroot/usr/lib -ljpeg
At a closer look, "pkgconf" seems to search for the '*.pc" files in
host/lib/pkgconfig/
while "pkg-config" looks into:
host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-gnu/sysroot/usr/lib/pkgconfig/
Is that the indented behaviour? What am I doing wrong?
Wolfgang
