+## Introduce dataonly for the pkgconfig module
+This allows users to disable writing out the inbuilt variables to
+the pkg-config file as they might actualy not be required.
+
+One reason to have this is for architecture-independent pkg-config
+files in projects which also have architecture-dependent outputs.
