I have both pkg-1.21.3, and pkgconf-2.2.0,1 installed.
Also, to answer another helpful response, I see nothing with "devel"
available that sounds applicable.
However, I went to ports/databases/mysql81-client
and compiled it. did *not* "make install".. just "make"
and then back to the exim RC1 compile. It compiled ! with a library
conflict, but none-the-less .. it compiled.

so, something seems to have been created just within that port make,
which satisfied the exim compiler. Now.. to examine what the port
compile did.
I very much appreciate the comments and assistance/suggestions.
