New issue 1896: pkg-config Needed to Build pypy, no useful error given

Campbell Barton:
Running `python2 rpython/bin/rpython --opt=jit pypy/goal/targetpypystandalone.py`
Just gives a message that `libffi.h` is missing, through investigation I found that this happens because pkg-config wasn't included on my system.
This should really give an error such as **pkg-config command not found**
