Summary:                    rpath provided libs is ignored when using
FindPackage
Description: 
I'm linking a library (libproxy for that matter) against another library
providing a pkgconfig .pc file (mozilla-js for what it matters here).

"pkg-config --libs mozilla-js" returns:
-Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib64/xulrunner-2.0 -L/usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib
-lmozjs -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -lpthread -ldl

When building the module at the end, the rpath to /usr/lib64/xulrunner-2.0 does
not exist, but one to /usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib is inserted into the
shared object, as seen here:

readelf -a /usr/lib64/libproxy-0.4.6/modules/pacrunner_mozjs.so | grep rpath
 0x000000000000000f (RPATH)              Library rpath:
[/usr/lib64/xulrunner-devel-2.0b12/lib]

This is ignoring explicit build instructions provided by the pkgconfig file
provider.

Steps to Reproduce: 
Have a .pc file that specifies explicit rpath for your linker.

Additional Information: 
An example of this happening is when building libproxy on openSUSE.
