This is much the same thing as I had to do for freetype-config recently
so I could use an updated freetype on an old system (RH8). It might be
worth making this a general change for all *-config programs. I don't
see how it's likely to cause problems except in the bizarre case where a
user has installed an older or broken foo-config somewhere and it's both
on their path and before a working foo-config on the path.
