OK, the attached script worked with the Qt binary package that was installed by the network installer on my Yosemite GM 
virtual machine.  It attempts to find the Qt installation and, if it does, attempts to find the .pc files for that 
installation and fix them.

Note that you must make sure that PATH include the pathname of the directory containing the Qt command-line tools such 
as moc and that PKG_CONFIG_PATH include the pathname of the directory containing the Qt pkgconfig files.  If you built 
and installed Qt from source, that may be the case by default, but if you installed a binary package - which, unless 
you have a very fast machine or are willing to wait a long time for macosx-setup.sh to finish, I'd recommend that you 
do - it won't be the case by default.  (I have a rather elaborate bit of code run by my .profile that attempts to find 
the Qt installation - that's where I got the code in the script - and set up PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH.)
