I would welcome a lot if you could provide a patch for learning how to place that pkgconfig call. I have seen AltLinux is simply appending -ldl, but pkgconfig solution looks more "elegant" Thanks :)

A neat fix can wait. We cannot just add "-ldl" unconditionally because -ldl is used only by xulrunner-2.0, not by 1.9.2. So the "neat fix" really is needed.
Should be fixed now (please reopen if it's not).
