autoconf is pretty orthogonal to what pkg-config offers. You can easily
use a pkg-config published library in an autoconf project. And it is
easy to support pkg-config in an autoconf based project as well.

One should not exclude the other, they are complementing each other.

I don't see why one couldn't consider upstreaming a pkg-config support
patch to libidn2 project.
