Fix installation on fresh OS X machines #7

If pkg-config is not available, autogen.sh fails when trying to use the AC_DEFINE macro.

When attempting to brew install universal-ctags --HEAD without pkg-config installed, I get the following error output:

By adding the pkg-config dependency, this error is resolved and I can successfully install universal-ctags.
