Well, I did not find exactly what I was looking for, but the following:

For a library LIBXXX, which is handled by pkg-config, the pkg-config 
result can be overriden by (environment) variables LIBXXX_CFLAGS and 
LIBXXX_LIBS (they are all now mentioned in configure --help ;-)

So it should be sufficient to set such variables somewhere in the 
configure script, when wget's own --with-libxxx-prefix option is set.
And it looks like the currently only affected options are those for the 
SSL libraries, namely --with-libssl-prefix (for openssl) and 
--with-libgnutls-prefix (for gnutls).

I myself do know next to nothing about this autoconf definitions, so I 
can't say exactly how this can be done in the configure.ac.
