I've been trying to install pkg-config but I can't get it to be recognized by the ./configure line when I try to compile a prog. Can anyone give me a tutorial on how to get pkg-config working?

What is it saying typing this at shell:
# pkg-config --version
May be configure require latest pkg-config. Open up configure.log and search for 'pkg-config' string, there will be explanation of failure there for sure.

Install Darwinports if you didn't do that already
then do a :

sudo port -v install libidl

That should install the whole thing and pkg-config too
