Oh, how embarrassing..!  I've been using cygwin-ports for the past week
or so which only offers libfftw ver 2.1.5.1.  I didn't even think to look
somewhere else....  :-(

You're right of course.  I'll uninstall what I've just done and re-install 
it the easy way.  However (to get back to my original problem....)

When I got to the 'make install' stage for fftw3 it installed its files
under /usr/ whereas my other libraries seem to be installed under /lib/
(e.g. fftw3f.pc was in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ - whereas 'everything_else.pc'
seems to be in /lib/pkgconfig/).  I'm assuming that this might cause future
problems if I need to build and install libraries manually.  Should I be
doing something to circumvent this?
